Just An Observation

I did some grocery shopping today. Here is a list of things I bought:

4 Totino's Cheese Pizzas--they were four for $5. Who doesn't like a bargain?
12 packs of Ramen Noodles--six for ninety cents--bargain!!!
2 packs of ready to serve Rice Pilaf
2 packs of ready to serve Jambalaya rice
12 pack of Cornona light
a Lean cuisine cheese pizza (to undo the bad of the four Totino's pizzas)
2 Lean Gourmet Shrimp with Pasta
1 Lean Cuisine 3 Cheese stuffed rigatoni
1 Lasagna Alfredo
1 Mac and Cheese
1 Fetuccini alfredo
A Brita dispenser--cause my fridge water has been tasting funny lately
A pack of Reach floss thingamajigs for my Reach floss handle thing
2 packs of rainforest scented incense
A Cross pen refill

Anyway, at the check-out counter, the check-out chick kept smiling under her breath. When she finished swiping everything, she smiled again at me with what appeared to be a knowing smirk. I smiled back and asked if I had food in my teeth or pen/highlighter marks on my face (spent a day in front of my review books).

She replied, "No, I just like the way bachelor's shop".

I gave her a look which prompted this response from her, "Just an observation. Aren't you?".

I told her for the time being I was and then made a comment about Mulan coming to visit and that I would be eating better when she came. Why I was covering for myself I don't know. Truth be told, I like being alone during this stressful time in my life.

I then had to bite my tongue to keep from saying my own observations. I wanted to say "You really need to stop Supersizing your value meals". Just an observation because she couldn't tie the back of her apron together.But I'm not mean spirited like that.I don't even know why I thought something so rude. I smiled and told her to have a good night.

She said, "See you when you run out of pizzas. Have a good night".

In retrospect, I don't think it was the food items that told her I spend my nights alone. It was probably the floss and incense.

Dammit! Coronas and no limes. Maybe my neighbors will have limes. They provided the Coronas last time and they had more than a few limes. I knew I forgot something.
