Fun at Wal-Mart

Toby and I did a bit of shopping last night at Wal-Mart. I went down the spice aisle while he went down the juice aisle. Some lady had her cart blocking most of the spices and was seriously searching the spices. I was trying to find some cumin when the lady turned and said, "Do you see any sage? All I can find is this dalmatian sage, and I don't know what that is!" I responded with, "Well, you see, they take these dogs..." I didn't need to finish my thoughts, because the lady was LOL. Both of us stood there - perfect strangers - laughing with tears in our eyes. I found my cumin and told her she was on her own. She wished me a Happy Thanksgiving, and we went our separate ways.

Buck, I don't know how quick I was or how funny that really was. I think I totally caught the woman off guard - she was not expecting such a smart-A.

Buck is right, you were quick on the draw with that one.

I guess the Wally World experience in OK is different than up here. I avoid the place like the plague. There's a reason that someone made a People of Walmart website.

Now, I'm trying to imagine that conversation in a French grocery store! We Americans have a MUCH better sense of humor, that's for sure! Especially you, Lou!

Catherine, I'm already missing you and Craig at the big T-Day bash.

Diva, you and I together at Wal-Mart??? That would be too much for the crowd.
