tanaiseWhen you buy pads at CVS, the checkers put them in a brown paper bag, and *then* into the white bag with handles. Just too cute. Because god knows, it would never do for people to realize that, hello? I'm 27 years old. If I'm *not* getting my period every 28 to 35 days, that's more important news than if I am. Honestly.
It would be nice if i could remember not to stock up on chocolate every single time I buy pads at CVS. I have an aversion to promoting stereotypes, it's just they always have chocolate on sale, and I always pick up a few bars without thinking until I get to the check out. :)
Dena's got access on this machine, so I just checked my sub database and discovered I've got something at LCRW that I'd forgotten about. Huh. Inneresting. It's been there 21 days. And something at WotF for 28 days, and something at Scifi.com for a week and a month. And I am hating Say... with the level of passion usually reserved for ROF. 150 days. Though to be fair to ROF, that wouldn't be grounds for hatred of them just yet, since it probably would have just made it to Shawna's desk. (Of course, come to think of it, ROF rejected this piece in 19 days. I'm pretty sure there's a moral in there.) These numbers would mean more, except that all the envelopes go to my mom's house, so I could have been rejected by all of them and the envelopes and rejections could have been completely devoured by little dogs, and no one would ever know. Well, except the dogs, and the rejectors. Who I'm sure would reject me again, if given the opportunity.

One of my favorite check-out line incidents was when I noticed that the person in front of me had a pregnancy test, a big box of condoms, and a HUGE thing of Smirnoff.
