To the nice lady who followed me around Walmart yesterday....

you know who you are: the one who was wandering the aisles - looking as lost as me. The one who...happened to hear the snarly comment I made about being in Walmart instead of Target because (well....because of a number of factors we won't go into here); when you heard that comment you sort of latched onto me. You remember - we became basket-pushin' buddies for about 15 minutes (even tho it seemed like an eternity) while you pointed out your Walmart-finds? You remember. You mentioned if we had been in Target we could have had a cup of coffee while shopping - or after shopping on our way to the car. (The fact that that reminder brought a tear to my eye didn't even phase you. It was then and there that I decided you probably weren't dangerous.)

Anywho....today I have this to say to you: Yes, the cantaloupe you insisted I buy was (ummmm....I cannot tell a lie) it was okay. Maybe not as good as you said when you found me (once again) in the produce section to show it to me and insist I buy it, and..even seemed to wait the at the store exit to ask if I had the melon. Did you think I'd put it back on the display once you left? Got cha! I figured that - that's why the huge cantaloupe was carved this morning and why cantaloupe will be part of most every menu for quite a few days. Oh! before I forget - thank you for your intended kindness.
