Grocery shopping tonight turned out to be an experience (of course I would forget to get the ONE item I absolutely positively NEEDED, but I digress). My supermarket has self checkout. More then that it has scan-as-you-go shopping. When you are a scan-as-you-go shopper, you can check out at the self checkout and just scan your store card and it

I'm ashamed to admit that I "honey" lots of people now. Even the baby gangsters who inevitably do a double take.

I noticed last year for the kids I know - and since I sometimes am involved in community theatre that also involves kids - I sometimes call them "sweetheart" or "sweetie."

This is the first time I've ever called a perfect stranger "honey" and it kind of freaked me out.

Things you do when you are of a certain age, even if you DON'T have kids... address someone more than half your age as "honey" without even thinking about it!

This could get funny as I get older. All I need now is a funny accent and a whiskey voice to go with it.

(baby gangsters! awwww... givin' the baby gangsters some love!)

Of course I would pick the shortest line that took the most time. I seem to have a knack for it. Oy!

I seem to have that same knack for choosing the line that will take more time. It might just be two people in the line I choose but it'll still take longer than the 10 person line open right next me.
