So, I read a lot of stuff on the interwebs. The other day I came across an article stating that some 10% or something of people meet their spouses in the grocery store. I am just throwing this out there, but that is a fucking lie.
At least for me it is. I go to the grocery lookin tore up. I wear the things I affectionately title my house pants (used to belong to my cousin.........who is 6'2) and smoking shoes (10+ year old Vans). Combing hair is optional. Make up, never required.
And if I am not in my why are these seeing the light of day clothes, I am in my work clothes. But I can't imagine anyone would want to talk to me. There are only one of two reasons I would be at the grocery in my work clothes. 1. I am really, really fucking hungry and I am about to go home and KILL whatever is in my basket. 2. I really, really need a drink. In both scenarios, people are safer to stay the hell out of my way.
How does one even hit on someone in a grocery store? I see you also buy the off brand Kroger yogurt....have you tried the new banana cream pie? Lame. Plus, most people need a little booze to chat anyway. And while you can go to the grocery store drunk (it's an adventure), it isn't exactly socially acceptable.
Which brings me here in my stream of conscience-happy hour at the grocery store. For real, they should encourage people chatting and drinking. Maybe throw in a food demonstration. Who wouldn't love a socially acceptable way to treat their local grocery like a bar?
I hope it happens in my lifetime.

So much going on!!!!!!
Rick Perry drops out of the race!
Endorses Newt!
Santorum actually won Iowa!
Debate tonight at 8pm!
South Carolina primary on Saturday!!!
I bet Santorum is pissed that he didn't get the Perry endorsement. The anti-Romney conservatives have been encouraging the coalescence of the conservative right vote behind ONE non-Romney candidate. It will be Newt v. Santorum in the fight for that mantel. Since endorsements don't hold quite the sway they used to, it will be interesting to see whether Perry supporters throw their weight behind Newt or Santorum. Newt is polarizing and a career politician. Santorum is staunchly conservative, but his Pennsylvania coal mining Union roots are off putting.
Such an exciting day for nerds!
