Lately, I've been doing most of the grocery shopping in our household. Heidi compiles the list and I head out and get the goods. (Before I forget, I must comment on the lists she compiles for me. Knowing that I don't really enjoy the grocery store, she does all she can to make it as painless as possible. So, when she creates the grocery list, she writes the items in the order in which I will come upon them on the shelves of the store - starting from produce, and finishing with any toiletries. Isn't that nice? I think so.) There is something that really bugs me about the grocery store though. What irks me the most, is other shoppers. It's amazing how preoccupied people get with their own grocery buying. They seem to forget that there are other shoppers in the store. Did you ever notice how you are always bumping in to people at the grocery store? Ever notice how people just leave their shopping carts in the middle of the isle, blocking all other people who want to get past? It's really, really annoying. I compare it to people who can't drive while talking on cell phones. So the next time you're grocery shopping, please be aware of everybody else. They'll appreciate it.

First of all, if your wife is doing that stuff for you re: the shopping list, you're a total loser. You're SO spoiled!!!
Second, you should be ordering your groceries online and having them delivered. There are a ton of services that do that, and it's quite convenient.. if you trust their avacado-picking skills.
Third, if you must go to the store, the best way to enjoy it is to stand in front of the onions or potatoes, hog all the space (use your cart if necessary) and spend about 30 minutes fingering everything that's sitting there. Then take one (1) onion (or potato). This makes you (me) feel powerful.
So let me get this straight - you buy your groceries online, but *I'm* spoiled? Hmmm...
