Unfortunately, I forgot to go to the store this weekend. What, with all the laying around and such, it totally slipped my mind. ha. So anyway, I head to Hy-Vee about 10:30…after many tears about bedtime and arguing about whether or not sleeping in ones own bed was a good idea. Both girls sleeping, and I am actually glad that we are out of milk because I get to be BY MYSELF at the store, and have an hour to putz around, stock up on stuff and just be in my own head for a while. It was all very pleasant until I got to the check out.
I had this guy to deal with.
Got that? Now, close your eyes and picture him in a blue button down collared shirt, imagine he is doing this the entire time he is beeping through your tomato soup and toilet paper, while he is bagging your biscuits and baking mix, while you are writing your check out for $145.67, and while he and you fill your cloth bags because I care about the environment and want everyone to know it because I AM better than you bags (you working a little faster than him just to get the hell out of there) and while he is not accepting no for an answer to the ONE QUESTION HE COMPLETED “Can I take these out for you? Oh I will, I should, I can bring the cart in…”.
Then it started again “if I bring the cart, well, I should always wear a coat, my mom told me, especially around christmas when the bell ringers, I love when the kids are ringing the bells, there is this bell choir, so I’m saying, what I did yesterday, IHOP has all you can eat pancakes, so gluten is bad for you when you have, I’ve been to the hosiptal 6 times in one month, the new fitness center has a difibulator, do you see they are closed, its really icy to walk around out here, thank, oh wait, you, I like your white car, hopefully its not cold when I leave, what I’m saying is, I don’t like spring, too rainy, I should have gotten my coat…..
I am so fucking frazzled from that 10 minutes I spent with him I can’t even sleep. I start my new way of life tomorrow. I guess tonight, I will sit here and think of ways to get “ANDREW 1 YEARS OF SERVICE” out of my head. Poor Guy, but God Bless The Baby Jesus….
