catch up blog

It really has been forever this time, and I know you are all just waiting on me to blog again, so I decided that I should finally do another post. Its going to be really random, and I will probably have to do more posts making up what I forget in this one, because this is just all from memory. So lets see, weird things that have happened to me in the last month or so; Well I did have this one guy come through and buy a few things, and as I was finishing up his order, he asked me why we didn't have any coffee or anything here. In my head I already knew that this was going to be an awkward discussion. I decided to just tell him that BYU didn't have any caffeine on campus, but of course he asked why, so I told him that Mormons didn't drink caffeine. He then laughed and said "Well, Jesus didn't say we weren't allowed to drink caffeine". I didn't know how to respond so I just smiled and said "I know" and handed him his receipt. He wasn't being mean or anything about it, but I know he was wanting to provoke me into some kind of discussion about it. Too bad for him I like my Dr. Pepper too much to disown caffeine in its entirety. Another funny experience I had, and possibly one of the funniest I've had, was with these two older women. It was a day that I had been fighting off the tail end of a cold and was very sniffly and stuffy sounding. These two women started to come through my line but as soon as they heard me talk hesitated, and one looked and me and asked me if I had a cold. I told her that I did, not thinking anything of it, but then she asked me, with a worried look on her face, if I could have another cashier come check her out, because she didn't want me and my malicious cold give her any trouble, her reason being heart problems. She actually told me that she didn't want to come near me and my cold because of heart problems. I didn't know that having a cold could really do anything to your heart, but I mean she was old and I'm not a doctor, what do I know. So I ended up having to call someone else up to help her while I just stood there trying not to laugh. Well just those two stories for now, I'll have an Efy post coming soon. Until then, keep it real all of you lovely people that read this.
