Vortexia's Secret

another thing was added to the list of things that V makes more fun than the average person.

mayhem went grocery shopping with me last night. i must have gotten giddy about it since it was my first trip outside since i had gotten really sick on friday night. i was feeling better by last night, but i didn't want to risk shopping all on my own, and since mayhem was already there he came along for the ride. as we left, he mentioned that he'd buy some frozen items at the grocery to make us dinner. as soon as we get there, i become entranced by the bakery goods. they had two of my favorite non-chocolate items side-by-side, and i had to have them. but mayhem was going to get them for me, i decided, so i worked my magic. first, i was adorable and super excited as i oohed and ahhed over them and checked out what would be the best bargain to get both. that got him to consider getting some for me. then i turned proceeded to turn him on in the middle of the store. i snuggled up close to him and started nuzzling and kissing his neck in that especially sensitive part. his breathing changed and i looked up into his eyes and said "please?!?" we got desserts.

then we moved into the first cooler section. it had health juices and then progressed to the cheeses. we looked at the juices and saw "strawberry cha cha"-- i pointed it out to mayhem who started laughing and saying it in a funny voice. then we saw alouette cheese and i sang the alouette song.

as we passed through the fruits, he saw an imported pineapple, and asked if i remembered who used the pineapple as a torture device. (turned out it was in that little nicky movie by adam sandler.)

by the time we get to the ice cream, i had to ask the obvious... "do you think everyone here thinks we're drunk?" "yeah, probably." then i start laughing because we're sober, we're just also stupid.

sadly, by the end i start feeling sick again. i guess i only had about 20 minutes of entertainment in me. although i still recognized the extreme humor when i was trying to hurry up the final piece of shopping. mayhem wanted juice, so he was comparing two types. he finally decided on one, but was being slow about putting it in the cart, so after i confirmed that the one in his hand was the one he wanted, i said, "turn around and put it in!!!" my eyes immediately got wide and i covered my mouth with my hands as i started to die of laughter. mayhem had a split second delay as his mind went, "wait, what??!" then he started cracking up too. as we walked away, i looked over at the stock boy who was close to us... he had a very odd grin on his face, but had somehow kept himself from laughing. i see management material there.

as we headed to the checkout lane, mayhem told me, "normally i hate grocery shopping and i try to get it done in 5 minutes if possible. you make it fun, though. i love grocery shopping with you." awwww....
