Standing On Boxes

Went shopping after work.

Usual chain of events:

1. Leave work before 6PM.
2. Go to W-mart (Yes, I know it’s not ‘hip’ to shop at the mart, but only liberal socialist types can afford to spend twice as much on food by going to a “regular” grocery store.(And hey! If W-mart employees are so poorly paid that they can’t afford health insurance and have to use Medicaid/Medicare/Emergency room — THAT is coming out of my taxes anyway. So I might as well save the rest of my money.)
3. After shopping — go get gas (the new buggy gets much better gas mileage so the gas trip is only bi-monthly now)
4. Buy a lottery ticket (maybe I’ll win… really.)
5. Car wash (unless- like today, it’s rainy out.)
6. Go home and unload the car.
7. Eat diner – something I just bought.

That would be me. If I don’t start exercising (more), the trend around the middle is headed wider than my shoulders. And not from drinking beer but soda. (I drink more soda than anything alcoholic.)
