Day 6: Popsicles & Kroger Misadventures

Ah, relief. Finally something that feels good on my throat! Kevin had suggested popsicles early in the week but I bought the creamy variety, on accident. The standard Kroger brand popsicles are just swell; very soothing. What’s great about them is that don’t contain any “fancy” stuff like real juice, vitamins, etc. These popsicles came at a price, however. The average age of the Kroger customers at noon is about 95. I nearly got run over by a 60 something crazed woman. I was waiting patiently for someone to back out. She looked into my eyes and gunned it toward the spot. I honked my horn and played chicken with her, a bit. (Normally, this wouldn’t even occur to me to do this, but she needs the exercise, I don’t!) After this behavior, I looked for a name on the door stating “St. Rita School for the Deaf,” but there was not one. Sorry, Kevin. Must have been someone else.
