Its late.. This could possibly not be coherant

I had a really decent day today. I talked to two people whom I really like on IM. I got two rebate checks from verizon for our phones (yay! Thats $200 in rebates just when we needed the money)

I took the kids to the grocery store. I got staple food, which to us is frozen pizza, frozen waffles, bananas, apples, milk and bread. I went to the closest grocery store, Food Lion.

The Food Lion here is seriously like the twilight zone. Right down the road is a Kroger. Its apparently where all the soccer mom's like to shop. They have a pretty decent selection of "health food" and vegetarian items. Their prices are a little high but I guess for the ambiance that Kroger offers, some suburbanites are willing to pay more. Food Lion is cheaper. I like cheap, so I shop there. They don't have tofu. They don't stock pears. Nor do they stock chick peas. Weird that they do not have those things. Granted, I shouldn't be shopping with civilians anyway considering that the Commisary is way cheaper but I didn't feel like driving out to the base and risking the dirty looks of other parents wondering why I brought a child with the plague outdoors. (poor guy) No one stares at you in the twilight zone. Believe me, we were some of the least weird people there.

The cashier guy is super nice too. He's so nice that he almost makes me nervous. And believe me, he's not just nice because I'm a sexy, bodacious babe either. He's that nice when Eddie's there too.

I spied on my neighbors today when they got home from Wal-Mart (YES, I KNOW I HAVE NO LIFE). The woman (Eddie and I call her Avril) and her husband (we call him Skater Boi) were taking up bags and Skater Boi was trying to invent this system for taking a whole lot of bags up the stairs at once by threading the handles onto a broom they purchased. It was funny watching him try to do this while his wife (these two can't be more than 25 years old) made 3 trips in the time that he was engineering the whole thing. I spy on them a lot because I am curious about people and they're a military family too. Ok, I spy on them a lot because I have no life and I'm bored out of my skull. I think if I could rig a survelance system in their house to spy on them I probably would. I get obsessed like that. More on that later...*coughfreakcough*

I always think I am so way outside the norm but the fact is that I blend better than I have ever in my life. I guess you get used to the feeling of being an outsider and it never quite sinks in that you are pretty much like everyone else.
