i got woke up this morning when the truck came around to pick up our recycling. that was at 7:54 this morning. i fell asleep in my chair around 5 this morning. so yeah, i guess i almost got 3 hours of sleep. joy.
the grocery store was a bit crazy today. they only had 2 checkout lanes open that had cashiers at them. if you wanted to scan all the shit yourself, all those lanes were open. given the number of elderly customers today at Kroger, it didn't take a fucking genius to know maybe we should have a few more checkout lanes open. to make matters worse, one of the lanes closed with a few people still in line. hot temps, short fuses, and melting frozen shit... what a recipe for disaster. the icing on the cake was after i bagged most of my own groceries and paid the $164 for everything, i went outside to put the items in the Highlander. within 30 seconds of putting the stuff in i heard a loud crashing sound. i started looking around and there looked like there was a head on collision in the intersection near the grocery store. thank god i would be going home in the opposite direction. what a shit show.
i did watch bits and pieces of the MLB All Star game last night. the American League won, 3-2. hell, the National League only had 1 hit after the first inning. Giancarlo Stanton of the Yankees won the MVP for the game. he is only the 3rd Yankee ever to win the award (Jeter and Rivera).
