whenever i go to the grocery store just to pick up a few things i always end up leaving with the oddest combinations. like today, when i needed to pick up horse treats and some stuff we ran out of. i left with 4 boxes of sugar cubes, 2 different kinds of peppermints, and five pound bag of carrots for the ponies, because i'm trying to clicker train them and that requires a lot of goodies, cookies & cupcakes for my dad because it's his birthday, and chocolate chips, juice & crackers because we had run out.

the cashier must have thought i was some sort of crazed sugar addict. i felt like i should explain it as i unloaded the cart..."no, really, it makes sense!"

actually i was just really glad they had sugar cubes, because they've become increasingly hard to find

Back when I worked as a cashier at a grocery store, I used to chuckle when old ladies would buy the off-brand Tea. The box says "Tea Bags" in green letters on a yellow box. With such a shitty job, you have to think about stupid stuff like that to stay sane.

Oh, and there was always the ever humorous "ladies man." He would be a fat guy that would make sure everyone knows he can't find the condoms. "Hey man, where are your condoms? I need them for tonight! I'm getting some, and I need some protection." Well, my store didn't sell condoms, and I really doubt that guy needed any.

great, so now i know that i'm probably known as "sugar girl" or something like that. thanks daniel.

i guess i'll have to wait until my hair fades to go back in...i won't be as recognizable with normal hair as opposed to bright blue.

until i start buying out their supply of sugar cubes/peppermints/whatever again.
