Things keep happening that I cannot exactly put my finger on. Very few people know me in my small town but a few in the grocery store or the Mobil station might know that I live here. It is hard to know a lot about a recluse but here is what happened yesterday in the grocery store.

My items are in a bag as I leave the checkout and the casheir is now checking another customer. I turned around at this point and asked her about an item I had forgotten. Out of nowhere her shift manager appears and asks "OK, what has happened over here." She was like an Army drill sergeant. All eyes were upon her then. I replied, "nothing has happened. I simply asked her about an item and she informed me that you do not carry it."I turned back around and continued walking out of the store as the shift manager continued to look stupid.

This incident and others like it are why I really do not like people. Maybe that shift manager needed some drama. I don't need drama of any kind and I secretly felt proud that the one causing it looked so damned stupid.
