@realjohnboy,
Hah, I lost mine for an hour on Friday, just when I was about to go out the door to the recommended eyeglasses place, me with the new prescription. (I'm a little wary, I like the old prescription right now, very sharp post surgery, but maybe the new one will be even better.) I rarely wear them in the house since most of the vision in them is re distance - I'm pretty good with near vision, and I have short rooms. They were under some foo foo in the bathroom. No, not doo doo, foo foo. Monday, monday, I'll try again. (I don't like Friday traffic much.)
On smiling today - the guy in the fish section (semi fresh fish, here!) was a kidder. I had to say, what?, as is my way. We worked it out to converse and laugh and I told him I didn't associate saturdays in grocery stores with laughing.
I let the seeming managerial type guy at the check out stand know I was pleased and he said he report it to the right people. I figure a kidder might need some support one of these days.
Although, when I first went in the store, there was another laugh. I bought a bottle of wine, that section being near the door. I headed down the shampoo etc. aisle looking for a shower cap. Couldn't find one. Left my cart at the end of the aisle and traipsed up the next aisle, got a shower cap, came back, and my cart was gone. I went to the front of those aisles, saw a familiar face among the albertson people, and she said 'can I help you?' I said someone took my cart. Was it empty? No, there was a bottle of wine in it. She said I'll find out. I said I don't care, as long as you don't arrest me for stealing a shower cap as I go to get a new cart by the door. Soon someone came running up with my bottle of wine. I said, I know I drink too much, but really... and she cracked up.
