Dear Lady in front of me at Harris Teeter,
I understand that the phone call you're taking while checking out is of the utmost importance. Whether or not to attend Pilates tomorrow morning is simply a conversation that cannot wait. Really, I don't mind waiting until you finish your phone call.
However, the checkout girl is trying to get your attention so you can pay. And the bag boy wants to know if you want paper or plastic. And your kid is stacking Snickers bars on the floor. I think he's making a high-rise condo, but I can't be sure. Maybe he has a future in architecture. Maybe he'll be the next Frank Lloyd Wright!
Anyway, I have a suggestion. It seems to me that you're having difficulty functioning in a normal capacity and carrying on a conversation simultaneously. Maybe you should tell your friend that you'll call her back. No? Ok, well like I said, I don't mind waiting. I'm sure the people behind me don't mind either. Oh, and I just saw your kid eat what I hope was a brown M&M off the floor.
Sincerely,
Ha! So, Harris Teeter is a grocery store?
