Shopping by Barenaked Ladies
"Well you know that it's going to be alright
I think it's gonna be alright
Everything will always be alright
When we go shopping
Well you know that it's going to be alright
When we go shopping
It's always lalalalala...
Shopping spree begin
It's always lalalalala...
Everybody wins
So shutup
And never stop
Let's shop
Until we drop
It's always lalalalala...
Shopping never end
It's always lalalalala...
Shopping with our friends
Shopping once again
It's always lalalalala...
It's never enough
Until you've got all the stuff
When the going gets rough
Just shop with somebody tough
It's always...
When we go shopping"

Grocery shopping is very mundane. I honestly do not like it. I do not think that anyone really likes grocery shopping? If any of you do like grocery shopping, then please say so in the comments.
But I am walking around today at my local grocery store, and I am noticing that it is SWAMPED...more so than usual. Then it occurs to me that we have a potential hurricane coming, so, that makes perfect sense. But I have also noticed something. I believe that I am invisible. People are almost running themselves in me. It is kind of funny, because I am begger than most of them, and yet they are still going out of their way to run in to me.
I also noticed that there are some really pretty girls doing their grocery shopping. Is there such thing as being a hopeless romantic? Can one truly find love in the most random of places? I mean think about it, people find love on the internet. They have never seen the person before, but they have the start the love process through emails, and phone calls. I have a couple really amazing friends that have used the match making sites, and now marriage, kids, the works. So why not the grocery store? Why not the passing glance, and the shy smile. Why not the chance meeting? Why not?
Sadly, today was not my day for why not...so I pressed on. I got my food, and was heading home went to my car, and noticed that someone was waiting for my parking spot. Now the spot was not that great. It was about five or six down. And then I noticed that that there was a spot right across from mine. But the lady kept waiting for mine. And she was blocking traffic. I had to laugh. I think my waiting the 3 minutes it took me to load my grocery in my trunk, get in my car, and then get going, the lady could have parked right across from mine, and went in to the store. She would have been in there that much faster, and only taken a handful of steps more. It really is unbelievable.
So that was my trip to the grocery store. I may be without love still, but I still had a laugh, and unlike millions of others, I have food in my fridge. So a good day non-the-less.
So I am watching some cheesey TV, and getting ready for bed. Big day tomorrow. First day with the college kids at St. George's. I will let you know how it goes.
Until then, I am your eternal bud...

i DO like grocery shopping, and i get WAY to excited about whatever is Buy-1-Get-1-Free each week!!! Its the highlight of my Thursday, to check the Publix circular to see the new sales for the week!! :) I just wish that I could get a free cookie, like bryce does!!! :)
i like grocery shopping too. although i'm not sure caitlin does since half the time she's crying whenever mommy stops pushing the cart!
i also like the way you are starting each entry with a song!!
I like thinking of interesting meals...and usually get my inspiration at the grocery store. I do have to say that Paul likes grocery shopping with me. And he never lets me push the cart... its a bit odd... but then I can go grab things off the shelf and its always fun to see what I can sneak in without his noticing...
