Dear Reader,
Last week I was standing in line at the local Walgreen's. The line was long and I stood behind a young lady, I'm guessing from the local college. I noticed she was trying to hide what she had and I looked closer and noticed it was an early pregnancy test. I didn't really think anything of it.
There was only one cashier who recognized how long the line was, and called for help over the intercom. Just as the young woman in front of me hit the front of the line, another cashier came to the front and said," can I help the next person please?" The young lady in front of me looked up and saw the cashier, and the cashier immediately recognized her and said, "Jenny, how are you?"
Jenny, looked up and stuttered a bit., "errr okay..." She set the test on the counter recognizing the cashier and the cashier, not yet recognizing the EPT box, started in, "so how are you doing? how are your class-" she stops recognizing the test and immediately the awkwardness of the situation comes to full fruition. "things are good" the young customer said. "excellent" said the cashier.
"That was awkward." I thought to myself. "I can help the next customer!" the next cashier said, and I walked to the next available cashier...
thanks for reading,
respect

Wasn't there an SNL skit or something on that? It would have been great if you found out that the cashier was her boyfriend's mother. And that boyfriend was currently overseas and had been for months.
