Market Adventures

So, we all go to the market right? Well, everybody knows that there is an unspoken rule or etiquette that you follow when you shop for food. The other day I was at the market and I swear to you, almost every rule was broken by the rude shoppers at the store. On my last trip, not only did it test my patience, it also tested my ability to keep my yapper shut and not verbally assaults the lame-os at the store.
Now, I am one of those shoppers that has frequent visits to the market despise the fact that I make lists (remember I am a list person) I always to no fail, forget something that I forgot to put on a list. When this happen Mr. G usually has to rush to the store to pick up that (usually important) ingredient or tool.


I LOVE mangoes, if you didn't already know this...well now you do!

When I pick out mangoes I like to take my time and make sure I get the best ones. So, I was minding my own business when this man decided that he wanted to reach across my face to grab a few mangoes. I turn to look at him thinking this has to be a joke. Nope. No excuse me, no sorry, no word, nothing he just reaches across me and grabs a mango. AND we made eye contact!!! Seriously?!? So, I politely step aside and let him grab his stuff while I watch him pick out his mangoes. So rude! I wanted to throw a mango at his head and I might have, if I wasn't so worried about wasting it!

So, after that moment I am over it. I am very good at taking a deep breath and moving on (sometimes...that day was a good day). So, now I am in the checkout line and I start loading food onto the conveyor belt. I leave the appropriate amount of space between my food and the lady in front of me. I was planning on putting the little divider down as soon as I got a good chunk of food out of my cart. This lady grabs the divider, slams it down and pushes my food back as if my food was contaminating hers!! I was shocked! I stop in my tracks and stare at her! She almost pushed my eggs off the counter!!! I was MAD! How. Incredibly. Rude! Oh the things that went through my head at that moment were very immature and juvenile, but oh man, they all would have been great choices had I actually acted them out... boo for being mature. Soooo ... I took the high road and well let’s just say I accidentally bumped her with my cart on her way out... I know I am terrible.

ANYWAYS! Something funny... here is me and Mr. G working on a GQ looks during an amazing engagement photo session with the very Talented Lauren Miyaki (I will add her blog here ___ as soon as I can find it) This makes me laugh, because I am pretty sure we were trying not to laugh. And we ended up looking like we were trying way too hard and to top it off we look silly. Every time I see this photo it cracks me up.

What do you think we pull of that sexy, sultry bedroom eyes look well or you laughing too?!

P.S. I would like to announce that I officially changed my last name after standing in line for 4 hours at the DMV!!!! We are talking a line out the door and around the building, JUST to get a number and get inside to wait some more!! Aside from changing my name, I was able to do some amazing people watching WOW the things you see at the DMV!

  1. Mrs. G,

    I like that photo of you and Mr. G. He looks mean! Especially with his scar showing!

    But I can just see the two of you bursting into laughter in the next second!

    Nice blogging!
