Hey! I Know You!

Ok, here's the deal. I go to the post office Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to ship our stuff from our ebay sales. The gorcery store is just a short walk from the post office, there's only a ginat Wal-Mart-sized parking lot seperating the two. Often, if I need to grab a few things, I'll just park in the middle and walk to the grocery store.

There's a lone express checkout near the pharmacy that's made my life so much easier. I grabbed what I needed and rushed to the counter.

"How's it going, Rush?" the young man said to me. "That's a good name for you, 'Rush'."

"Oh, you recognize me, do you? Am I in this store that often?" I asked.

"Yeah, I see you in here all the time and you're always hoofing it!" he laughed.

"Well, yeah. I'm off the clock," I joked. "Good grief, I am in this store way too often!"

It's not the first time a clerk has commented on my speed. Cashiers and baggers often recognize me and comment jokingly, yet politely about how I rush in and out all the time. To be honest, I didn't think I was in that store that often.

So let's see what the short girl that's always running through the store had today. Um, two 12 packs of Pespsi and a half gallon chocolate milk for Shawn. A quart of 2% milk for me and...

Store brand vaginal cream for yeast infections.

HA! How embarrassing. Well, I wasn't embarrassed. It happens. In fact if your looking for way too much info, it's the second time it's happened in 9 weeks.

The first time, nine weeks ago, I was freaked. I thought I was diseased until I talked to a pharmasist. "I know doctors are expensive but if it continues for over a week you really need to see a doctor," he explained.

Sure thing. I studied the package insert forever, not quite knowing what to do where to insert what into where. The directions state that you should wear cotton panties and keep them dry and cool.

That's not really practical for me. You see, I work at a poorly ventialted dry cleaners and I sweat like a pig on any given today. Today it was 102 degrees. Keeping my skivvies cool and dry really isn't an option for me at this time. In fact, it probably won't even be a consideration until November.

Remember when I said I wanted to be a boy when i was younger because of all the crap girls have to go through? This is definetly one of those times. And don't whine about guys get jock itch 'cuz I got a mad itchy heat rash where my bra line holds up my boobs. So quit yer crying.
