A choosing Begger

Before I begin, I have to write something to vouch for myself. When I pass by someone and they ask for money I will usually donate some, just because you never know, that may be the person that actually needs the money and you may be helping them out. Even if I have been fooled ninety nine times and then one person really needed it, well its worth it for me to help one out of 100 people.

That being said:
I was walking out of the dollar store today when a woman approached me. I had gone there for a teapot and so I had only brought change with me, had very little money on me. This woman shows me a peice of paper that wrote something along the lines of "i am a single mother please give me money so that I can feed my children." Luckily, as she forced me to read this, all of my valuables were in my front pocket, so I knew no children were comming up behind me to pick pocket me. I gave her ...1.35. It's always the reactions that people give me afterwards that makes me certain if they are genuine or not. She began to beg me for five dollar bills, to which I told her I had only change on me because I went to the dollar store. She tried still to convince me that she deserved five dollars to feed her family. Eventually she gave up or realized I was telling the truth and walked away.

If she really did have children, they would have pickpocketed me.

a dog

I met a lovely dog yesterday as I was out in the woods writing.
It was a weiner dog, he could apparently read. He must have liked my story because after the on visit with me his owner took him away, but he ran back and ran straight to me. I must be a good writer for dogs.

Things you did not need to know

"Somebody should definately make a poccohauntus porno."
~Some guy in the A wing.

"I have yet to fully have butt sex."
~A guy that works at the front desk of my buildling, I passed by him when he said this to a girl who also works here (they were not working at the time) I must try to avoid them now.

The woman who was busy on her phone

There was a woman today in front of us at checkout, she was on her phone as she unloaded her cart. It was a business call, so she apparently could not wait until she was at home or driving her car. Because one of her hands was pushing this phone against her face the other one had to empty out the cart one item at a time. She also left the cart at the end of the conveyer belt. So she would pick an item up, walk down the moving conveyer belt to put it down with the other items. I was able to unload my groceries before she even finished.

The cashier who has to pee.

Sarah was about to go into a line up that was moving a lot faster than the one I was standing in. Then the cashier put a sign up saying that she would not take anyone. When Sarah joined me we watched the other line up and discovered the reason for that cashier’s productivity. She was jumping up and down and quickly swiping everything. She seemed to be closing her cash to go to the bathroom, but what a trooper for taking two extra shoppers before her break.

The nice lady with a compliment

Sarah and I were stopped by a cheerful woman one day. She had apparently passed us three times already that day (I rudely did not notice, could have been a day I was hungry and therefore paid more attention to the food). She apparently just had to stop us to tell me, “That green with your hair colour [orange] looks amazing!” It was very nice.

The impatient lady with a cart

A woman was following us for about five seconds, and asked to squeeze by us. Of course, she could have always gone down another aisle to avoid us altogether. Or waited a millisecond, for that was the exact moments we were going down an aisle, getting out of her way entirely.

The Impatient Cheese Man

We met this man at the checkout. He was behind Sarah. He didn’t like it when I tallied up my grocery bill before paying. He also proceeded to put his groceries on the conveyer belt before Sarah had even begun to unload her cart. I slammed down the plastic rod in front of his groceries, I do not think he took the hint. He was purchasing over eight bricks of cheese. The cashier questioned him on this, he claimed that he has a large family, I think he said 3 children. He apparently only feeds them cheese.

The man who has never been grocery shopping before

This was a rather interesting sight, as this thirty/forty year old man kept appearing down the same aisles that Sarah and I were going down. We first spotted him in the vegetable aisles, when a worker there happily said that he was glad that he could help him. That was when the man said, “Don’t go far just yet, I have another question.” The grocer sighed and reluctantly went to help the man. When we were down another aisle, this time pasta, he was looking at the pastas and as he passed us we heard him muttering something to the extent of, “Isn’t there anyone who works here who can help me?” then he wondered off in search of someone, but alas, he did not find them, instead he found some Asian noodles in another aisle. Then he returned to his cart. I assume his shopping went over well, as he was later seen at the checkout. At least he knew he had to pay for the food. I am wondering if he is one of those billionaires who lost so much money this year that his chief has left him and he must do this by himself. He wore black sunglasses (yes indoors)and a black turtle neck sweater.
