Rice and Beans...

So.... here is a interesting night for you..

So I was sitting at work last night, when a late ad came in that had to be built. So naturally I was like ok, I'll do it. I can use the extra hours.. So after finally whipping out the ad and fixing a ad that was a total nightmare building with a thousand names for a thank you deal, with a BItc+ of a lady putting the ad together for her company.. anyways, that is besides the point.. So I finally got out of work and was like hmmm.. I was going to go to the gym, but now that I am not going to get home until 7 and i am starving I am going to go home and eat some din.

So I jump into my truck and realize that I have no gas. NONE. That might be because I have been waiting for a paycheck to get more gas, because I had no mula. So I was like well, I think I might be able to make it home, its downhill right??? So as I was driving I realized that I was retarded and there was no way I was going to make it home. So I went on a road that goes parallel to the freeway, having no idea where the hell I was. Eventually I found a gas station and got some gas. Then remembered I passed a Albertsons on my way to the gas station, back tracked and thought I would pick up some rice and beans for dinner real quick so I could just go straight home.

I run into Albys just having just my car keys and credit card in my pocket from when I got gas. I run through the store grabbing rice, beans, NON butter flavored tortillas (yeah made that mistake of not looking at the package good enough and bought butter flavored tortillas-who the hell makes those) and some other stuff.

So I go to the self check out, thinking it was going to be faster... Yeah so I check out and then run my credit card, and with that new thing you have to enter your zip. So I enter mine, and get denied. Shit, what zip do I have on this card I think to myself, vermont, oregon?? aaaah, so I start trying to put in zip codes and naturally I cannot remember VT's for the life of me. People are staring at me, like what the hell is this stupid girl doing??? Finally I am like screw this, cancel out, then it told me I had to wait for the worker person to come over so they can verify this cancellation. So I am waiting and finally this guy comes over and was like whats the problem? So I told him and he was like well do you have your ID? And of course the one time I leave my purse in the car I need it. So I ran out to get my purse, run back into the store and show the guy, while he is RE-checking me out. Then entering my rewards number--yes save that dollar and a half!!!--and entering a different credit card. Then the guy is like OREGON!!!! I grew up in Oregon too. Where in oregon are you from?? and I tell him, and he's like oh my great grandmother is from there!! How bout those Ducks huh!!!! They're doing great, and goes on to tell me all of the stats and who they need to beat to be number one. And while he is telling me all of this useless information of the Ducks football, I am trying to put my ID and credit card back into my wallet, then all of my business cards and randomness falls out of my wallet onto the ground.. PERFECT!

So now as I am walking out of the store, I now have all this knowledge of when the Ducks are playing, who they are playing and what ranking they AND they're competitors
