Aww, Aims. Well done. It's been fifteen years since I was a grocery store cashier, and I can still remember vividly what a total PITA WIC was for everyone involved. So weirdly specific. I usually had to call a manager for help.
What a humiliating process to go through every time you go to the store. And today you made it better for her.
~ma for niece of Zenkitty and for Ginger and her neighbor.
I'mma give you kudos any damn way. Doing good is good.
I'm glad to know people like Aims. Makes my world better.
My niece has "walking" pneumonia. Which I think means she's not sick enough to be hospitalized. So she's home and has medicine and hopefully is sleeping now. She's updated Facebook, so she's probably okay. Thanks for the ~ma!
I admit, I get a little misty eyed whenever I hear or people perpetuating kindness and generousity to others. It's a good thing. And I fully believe that there should be a %100 discount on car repairs when said veh is necessary for getting to and from cancer treatment. Sriously.
Didn't need to be said twice.
I do occasionally really love my job. Like tonight when I was talking to a remarkably lucid-sounding woman demanding an ambulance and police because someone "made" her "eat an edible brownie." She kept saying that "edible brownie" part over and over. Eventually I interrupted her and said "all brownies are edible. Do you mean a marijuana brownie?" Of course she did. "what symptoms are you having" "my mouth is really dry" "when did you last have something to drink?" "Um, maybe right after the brownie." "And that was 5 hrs ago? Have you tried drinking a glass of water? Or two? That might help with the dry mouth"
It was really really hard to not giggle at her. But i kept it together.
I have to wonder, did she drink some water and cancel the emergency services? Or did you have to call an ambulance: "Don't worry about a stretcher, guys; just administer BBQ chips and a Hershey bar, stat!"

What erin said!
Ginger, I'm sorry about the badness.
Too much social this weekend. It's all good social, but my anxiety is not happy about it.
Pictures of my sister holding her new grandson are so lethally beautiful. I'm just dead from it.
