What a pathetic Friday night...
I went out to dinner with some friends, that was good, but we got done early. So what did I do? Did I go home, get dressed in one of my favorite party outfits and go out? Nope. Call some friends over? Nope.
I went to Wal-Mart!
Around the corner, they've built one of the super-mega 24 hour Wal-Mart behemoths that everyone hates but shops at anyway. I've been in there before of course, but never that time of night on a Friday. Seems there's a lot of people who live their week just to get in there on Friday night and spend their paychecks.
The place was freaking packed with a wide variety of samples of the human species. If you want to study human, Wal-mart on a Friday night is the place to be. Lots of them just got paid and cant wait to get in there and spend it. And by virtue of having a department store and groceries under the same roof, you can get some really interesting combinations on their carts. Two 100 count packs of mini-sausages, a 6 pack of white t-shirts, a copy of Crocodile Dundee on DVD, whipped cream, a watermellon, and a hedge trimmer. I wanna party with that guy!
It was all fun til I went to check out. Those have to be the slowest moving lines in the world. It could be because the cashier speaks one language while there's at least 4 native tongues represented in every line at any given time. And dont you hate the way stores always put stuff in the checkout lines at eye level for little kids that they know is going to make them lose their freaking minds? I shoulda went clubbing, it would've been nowhere near as exhausting.
