i'm tired
I was in the grocery store earlier today and knew right away there was going to be a problem. As I arrived at the front approx. fifty feet away from the front door I noticed a slow moving couple, well dressed and strutting, just ahead of me and coming from the west. Well, I could not be rude and run just to get in front of them. I had to remain calm and allow them to enter the store as the dynamic couple they obviously were. I knew that no matter where I went once I got in the store that this couple was going to be in front of me taking up the entire fucking aisle. Well, sure enough, as I rounded around the first corner there they were checking out the chips; as if she needed them. I abandoned the notion of chip retrieval and moved on to the frozen foods at the back of the store. I needed some cool whip anyway. I rounded the very back corner of the store, cool whip in hand, and boom there they were getting some ice cream taking up the entire aisle. Well, I had to get some soda and cookies and I knew I had to haul ass. So i quickly grabbed a two-litre bottle, the cookies, a loaf of bread, and a pack of smokes. The lines were long so I went ahead and left the line for the residual check out at the front of the store and yes indeedy there they were holding up the entire fucking universe with a question about some pies and shit. All I wanted to do really was get some soda and cookies, and now I am in a struggle for my very sanity. I had visions of every horrible thing imaginable to happen to this couple. They just seemed like space takers who were looking to make their presence know throughout the world. By this time I had spent far too long in the store dealing with these two to just quit now. I was in it for the long haul baby. I was now watching the clock. i'm tired.
