i had to laugh...

Some of you may not be aware, but when you buy half a dozen bottles of wine at a major chain grocery store they lift the lid of that bagging carousel and inside are re-usable grocery bags with bottle separators... which they give to you...

Another nuance is that if that same order also contains baby Motrin, instant breakfast, a five pound bag of potatoes, a steam vaporizer, and Children's cold strips, not only do they give you the bag for free, they ask you for i.d... as if to say, 'there's no way in hell your under 21, but you look like you could use a break.'

So tonight, I toast the check out lady who made my day... the vaporizers have been activated, the meds dispensed, the dogs let out, the kitchen cleaned, the stew put away, the laundry started, and now... on to the extra-curriculars... which will most likely include one of the bottles of wine.
