I just dropped nearly $100 at the Jewels and ended up with a bagger who didn't care if he threw the bread in with some of the canned goods (I had to tell him to put them in a separate bag), and then didn't bother double-bagging all of the canned goods so that I had two bags shred before I even got into the apartment building. Grr.
But, at least I got the supplies for some decent chili cooking tomorrow!!
Jewel! I remember Jewel. I used to get a logo sucker every time Mom cashed a check there with me in tow.
K-Bug is working at TJ's today during the rainpocolyps. She is a courtesy clerk - bagging, chasing carts, helping customers as needed. She took 3 sweatshirts and a rain poncho. I'm thinking of sending her directly into a hot shower when she gets home.
It is just "Jewel," but I had to be a Chicagoan and turn it into "the Jewels." It's a local dialect thing that I love to play up when I can. ChiKat likes to mock me in my Chicagoese--I was showing her pics from my sister's wedding on my computer and pointing out fun shots ("That's a good one there...I like that one there...") and she kept on saying "Where is it, Kathy? Where???" Also, she giggled when I asked a friend of hers "Where do you work at?"

I love your dialect! And, I totally noticed "the Jewels." Your dialect comes out mostly in word usage and phrasing, not so much in pronunciation. I do hear a Chicago dialect in your sound, but it's not a strong one. Like some Sout' Siders.
What is the code for murder, is it 813 or 817 or something? Procedurals is either at that or near it and it's cracking me up-mostly because I've been home taking care of Mr. Jane all day and am in need of entertainment.
Supposedly in LA it's 187, but I don't know if that's even true. Everything I know about murder codes, I learned from Snoop Dogg.
I may say "Jewel" but I know what a gratch key and a fronch room are.
Gratch keys are hardly existent anymore, what with gratch door openers being so prevalent.
We never had a fronch room, just a living room.
If I recall from my software testing days, 187 is correct
