I will eat soup when it’s hot out. I love soup.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I also like soup when it's hot out. If it's too hot for soup it's probably too hot for food in general.
When I was having some dental problems and couldn't chew i found that Mac and cheese is easy to mush on the roof of my mouth with my tongue.
And long spaghetti chopped up small was easy to eat
The other day at work they had to reject the milk delivery because the temp was too high. It was like 42 F. So yesterday there were people grumbling because no milk.
We got milk today and it wasn't too hot. I helped put it out because we were out , except for things like graa fed, lactose free and plant based. And half and half because those come with the dairy truck
As we are putting it out we are telling customers who are getting milk ..this is all we have, it came in today. We don't have skim or fat free milk. And then people were still trying to take milk from the back of the shelf. Or saying things like "I need skim milk.". We don't have it "the kind with the pink cap. " We are out of skim milk "So you're out of skim milk?"

When I worked at K-Mart in high school, I was amazed at the number of people who would make it to the checkout and not have any idea what store they were in (it has a giant "K" on the building, what the fuck). People would hand me department store credit cards and when I said we didn't take that, they would look around, startled, and ask "This isn't McAlpin's?!?!?" (That store didn't have checkout lanes. Or giant "K"s everywhere.) Or they'd go to write a check and then stop at the "pay to" line and look at me really blankly and ask, "What store is this?"
And I was just like, when you go home, how do you even get to the correct house? Do you just pick a house at random and see if your house key works?
(Unrelated to the extremely-disconnected-from-the-world-around-them people, I was also gobsmacked by the women who would get in their purse to pay, would start digging around for their wallet, and then say "Hold this" without making eye contact with me, and start handing me shit like their keys and those GIANT cell phones from the late 80s. Bitch, I am not your personal valet. Set your shit down on the conveyor belt and find your damn wallet.)
Or they'd go to write a check and then stop at the "pay to" line and look at me really blankly and ask, "What store is this?"
I was definitely one of those people. Even when I shopped at the same store all the time. Haven't written a check in a long time though. I did not hand things from my purse to the checker, though.
I will also suddenly think that I don't recognize anything around me while I am driving and have to figure out where I am trying to go and if I am on a route that will lead me there because I forgot and was driving on autopilot.
When I first worked at the Belk here I had a woman come to pay her store credit card bill. Only it was for Dillards. I told her she was in Belk and she tarted to argue with me about it .
Also that Dillards is 3 stories and all the other departments stores are 2 stories. So I had one woman accuse us of taking off an entire floor when I told her there wasn't a 3rd floor.
ION E is going to visit for a few days. He is currently in Greece with a school based trip. 2 years ago he went to Italy. So far this year he has been to Key West for a Boy Scout camp, somewhere ele for a camping trip with the group similar to Boy Scouts and this trip. I think there is one more thing he was going.
Next month he turns 16!! And can get his license. I can't believe he is 16. Almost.
And Mom is sick right now. Not Covid , the flue or RSV according to the test she took at urgent care. Some other virus
E doesn't get here until Aug 1 . So she should be fine then.
I've had to submit a request to remove the Activation Lock.
Update: Apple has denied my request to remove the Activation Lock.
Fucking hell. Thank god they have so many protections to prevent laptop theft. It's actively stopping me from using the laptop.
Reads like something that could happen to me.
