Straight from Fatty: What JUST had happened to me (Tales from Insomnia)

I'm a certified "Night Owl". I have the most energy at night and feel the most creative after midnight.  Sometimes I take advantage of these energy surges by doing more mundane things like cleaning or I even venture out to do some shopping at the 24 hour market.

So tonight, I did the latter. Usually there are only a few people milling about the aisles plus the graveyard staff. Everyone is usually quiet and is minding their own damn business. BUT NOT TONIGHT...

Problem #1 I run into some chick I "kinda knew" from high school. Awkward, and by awkward I mean its 1:05 am I have not a stitch of eyeliner or lip gloss on, I'm not in the mood to talk or have an impromptu reunion with someone I only "kinda knew" from high school.

But I'm training myself to not be such a huge bitch all the time so I said. "Hey Girl, I know you..how you been...OK good...see you around....."

Ugh...gross I hate running into people like that.

Problem #2 I had to ask for help to find an item, AND somewhere between frozen foods and the bread aisle the associate that was helping me got it twisted...

HIM:" Shopping late huh? You come here often?"
ME: "Um?" reluctantly "Yeah??"
HIM: "OK here's what you were looking for"
ME: "Thanks"
HIM: "Is there like, a number I could get"
ME: "What?"
HIM " um...a number, could I have your number"
ME "NO..."
HIM: .......stares at me for another 5 seconds like I'm gonna reconsider, then walks away

Trust. I'm flattered that dudes appreciate The Fatty but there is a time and a place and this was neither..

There is no moral to any of this, but I'll tell you this... I'm off after-midnight shopping for at least a month.
