Arizona Dreamin’

By laurie54

At least it was sunny

One of those days when nothing seems to be as it should be…
At Fry’s, the pay app on my iPhone refused to work. (Not Apple Pay)

Fry’s gas pump wouldn’t recognize my bonus points $0.35 off/gal followed by being unable get my gas portal open (just push to pop open). A woman on the other pump asked if the car was locked? Who knew? Well, apparently she did.

Back in town:
Checking out at Walgreens I asked that the Clorox toilet cleaner be put into a separate bag. (That’s just common sense)
Guy: “Everything is sealed. Nothing is going to leak.”
Then, I asked if he would place the chocolates in a separate bag.
Him: You’re using too much plastic!”
Me: “You don’t have to be persnickety!” “I don’t like plastic bags, either.” I tossed the chocolate into the bag with the hand soap and other cleaning supplies.
“Do you have paper?” I asked.
“Yes. Do you want me to put all of your things in paper bags?”
Next time,” I said. “Good to know.”

Opening bags at home, both bottles of soap leaked. Chocolate ruined.

Three thoughts:
1. What happened to “would you like paper or plastic?”
2. What happened to ’the customer is always right?’
3. Don’t men realize that when it comes to all things shopping, women are exponentially better?

The blip shows you, through my filthy windshield, what I had to look at on the drive up the hill to get home. Blinded by the light!

My brother thinks he’s smart. He told me that an onion was the only food that makes you cry. So I threw a coconut at him.

A teacher asked her students to use the word ’beans’ in a sentence. One little girl said, “My father grows beans.” “My mother cooks beans,” said a boy. A third student spoke up. “We are all human beans.”
