I JINXED myself.. the little bit of venturing out we did today included a stop at Office Depot and Game stop. 2 video games and a package of CDRWs.

Office Dept was PACKED *schools starts here tomorrow*...so i went into gamestop and got them.. only a dollar more along with the 2 games..

i'm in line behind a guy with his son.. (only 1 cashier open).. the kid is 1/2 way thru his transaction when i walk up.. has his money out.. always a good sign.. but alas!! he's 2.00 short..so Ole dad pulls out a wad of bills and hands him a 5.00 telling him he'll take it out of his next allowence.. good move dad!!

Thinking ..ahh this is gonna be quick.. *i have my money in my hand already*.. am i surprised when dad is still in line after the kid is bagged and almost out the door.. then i spy dad is getting a used controller.. no biggie ..still quick..

WRONG...

Dad pulls, Not that wad of bills out, but his FUCKING check book.. and writes a check for .... 6.99 cents.

so now the cashier has to ask for ID.. dad gets out wallet and opens it.. so his licensis is showing.. but the cashier realizes he can't read the #'s. so Dad has to fumble to get the ID out.. stuck as it was since it's CRAMMED full of Credit cards..

and once he gets the ID out.. the cashier still can't read the numbers because his ID is sooo faded and dogeared.. so we spend another 5 minutes discussing it.. is it a 3 or an 8??

and his address on his ID and his address on his check don't match..

soooo .. guess what.. instead of pealing off another 20.00 and paying cash..the guy gets mad and leaves..

needless to say i think the guy was relieved he didn't have to hear me huffing, puffing and cursing him in spanish every 30 seconds..

i need a nap........................
