What a day – dropping the love of my life off at the airport for her to be gone five whole months was liking asking me to eat rat poison before chewing glass and sticking pins in my eyes. Then work was like a hammer repeatedly hitting me on top of the head. A friend called in tears, aching about her love situation. Later, Jake was in core meltdown screaming crying mode. I finally pulled it all together and went by Whole Food to pick up a few things but then decided on the way home to go to Winn Dixie on Tchoupatoulas. Now if there wasn’t reason enough to cry before, the scene in play there was a complete and utter tear jerker – the woman in back of me said they call it the StuperMarket – the robust woman in front of me decided to just not unload her basket and engage in a long ass conversation with another woman about god knows what but they were laughing so hard, the entire grocery store was looking over our way – the large one kept almost chanting, “Yes indeed, the Lord provides” – not for me, I was muttering under my breath – meanwhile she finally decided to put her stuff on the conveyor belt, only now my stuff was already on there and so the cashier kept running the belt towards her and shoving my stuff back, running it towards her and shoving it back, I snapped and said, “turn it off, please,” and after a deep breath I went back to trying not to look completely unprovided for and so it began in a new way, the woman said don’t put the water on there, and in the next breath, put that water on there, don’t put the water on there, put it on there, till she had the cashier so confused and they both had to go through the bill line item by line item and call a manager over to figure out if the debit and credits for the bottle of water added up to one line entry. Lord today is all I have to say.
