ok guys we are having a serious bday part at cc sunday april 27th!!!!
Good! I swear you will be safer that way.That's ok, I don't talk much
megan...you and i may have to hang out together without the others for awhile...i dont want to talk to anybody for the first few hours in the am...we can just grunt to each other...
That sounds great. Its about all I can handle that early in the morning. 
Hmmm... Well, my folks are from the Midwest, maybe that's why. Ja sure, don'tcha know.
YOU, TOO???
What is it with you people??? Did your mothers let you drink pop for breakfast???
My mom woulda flipped out if I did that! Heck, she probably STILL would!!!

ok, here's a weird to me thing that I have noticed.. what the heck is up with the great need to have a bar between grocery orders??
I had my stuff in a carry basket and just plopped it on the belt. The guy in front of me has this big birthday cake and ice cream.. very obvious which purchase was his and my basket of wheat bread and salad stuff.. well he glances at me and WHACK puts down the divider bar
Then the cashier takes each item out of may basket -- PLUNK PLUNK PLUNK on the belt and crashes the basket with a pile behind her.. umm you wanna be careful and not mash my vegies there lady?? And why couldn't she just tip it to the side and take things out as she checked them.. you would thnnk that's more of a repetitive injury to crash it one by one on the belt??
Some lady comes behind me -- quickly slaps a divider down (at this point my stuff was still in the basket)
I just laughed.
Do my groceries have cooties???
The dividers are rarely used in Twin Cities, just put a big space betwen orders.. it's pretty obvious people
Cashiers used to be a little smarter back in the day, I think. We used to not need to use the dividers, like you said we'd just leave a gap on the belt. I didn't use one when I had a basket AND I left a gap, and I KID YOU NOT, the cashier grabbed the basket and started ringing it up with the previous purchase. I wanted to say, "Hey, Einstein!" But I didn't...Do my groceries have cooties???

Hmmm, I must be more heavily influenced by my parents than I realized. We do say "a little lunch" or "grab a bite" in asking if you want to eat out. But it is a very Northwest thing to talk about the weather. I don't know WHY, really, because it's basically usually CRAPPY...It's cute.. you have a bit of the midwestern in you .. weather being the first topic of a conversation is a VERY midwestern thng to do
Followed by cars, talking about your husband and your children.. somewhere along the way food must be discussed.... Want a "little lunch"
oh wait, you have to refuse three times and then say "ok whatever"...
Oh, geez, Lynn, don't make a big fuss. It's about the hyenas!
