Supermarket Sweetheart (Nov 2004)

So there I was looking for this wine... had to ask the Tesco's man to help - he showed me three with 'pinot grigio' in title.. didn't know which to pick - so chose the number 2 rated (fruity) which turned out to be £3.50 more than the other one (d'oh)... here's to me being totally unable to sustain a relationship longer than 7 days. *bottoms up!!*

While there I also saw a special offer on some DVDs I had always wanted - so got suckered into a purchase *must stop these impulse buys - or will not be able to pay for scuba dive exam in Barbados! aaagh! *

So, while I'm in the checkout line, this guy comes and takes one of the bottles from my hand and says
'excuse me can I see that?'
and then
'are you allowed to drink these in the office?'

So I turned round to cuss him and hit him with the other bottle for being so fast... but find myself in a giggle and batting my eyelids... I am ONLY looking at THE most gorgeous red man ever! Correction - the SECOND most gorgeous red man ever - cos he stepped aside to show the bottle to his mate.. and THAT red man has green eyes! Can you say Light-skinned LEMAR!!! Y'all know how I feel about LEMAR!! knees buckle.

Anyway - struck up nice conversation with BOTH - couldn't decide which to look at more - on the way to the checkout. Told them I needed the alcohol cos me and flat mate were having a girls night in - what self respecting girl is gonna tell a stranger we're celebrating getting dumped?

One guy says 'Ladies Night is Wednesday, Thursday nights is gentleman's night'. (pfft woteva!)
So I asked where they were going - seeing as how they were buying apple juice and a microwaveable meal *snigger*
Turns out they are staying in - yeah exactly! cha! About gentleman's night. stupse!

Green eyes says he more interested in his belly than alcohol. Hmmm - he's obviously looking for a wife. hahaha. And then he asks
'So when are we (meaning me AND my girl and the 2 of them) gonna meet up?'

So I call his bluff and say - next Friday (cudn't think of anything else) but they called my bluff and said:
'okay - how will we know where to meet you?
soI gave them my girl's number (ha-ha) cos the 1st reddie started moaning about how he cant give me his number cos I'm a stranger (punk!) Mr green eyes rolled them eyes and sighed and said -
here, give me then.


They're from Namibia. You ever meet anyone from Namibia? New part of Africa I haven't messed up before lol. Anyway between now and Friday is approx. 7 days - that's long enough to feed my seven day happy fetish. (If you dont know don't ask)

Highlight of the conversation:
1. ' you have this small cute face so I thought you were Namibian' - ignore the bit about them thinking only cute small faces come from Namibia and feel flattered by the cute small face bit.
2. 'Barbados? you from Barbados? I like the way you said that 'Barbados', it rolls off your tongue like your mouth was made to say that word:' Barbados''

ROFL The sun is shining outside.. I am so easily amused.
