Metro,
I was probly in the store for 20 - 30 min.
She has to have burned 1/2 gallon of gas.
I laughed so hard I dropped my bags and told everyone that would listen when I got to work.
Originally I wanted to ask her if she owned a gas station, but when I overheard her conversation I couldn't bring myself to do it.
Irony, Stupidity, call it what you will, it was still unnecessarily wasteful.
In retrospect, after hearing her complaint I should have told her it was her fault gas is so high.
But that would only have enraged her and then I would get shot.
too bad, so sad, ur dad,
S.
