Thirst

Yesterday afternoon I had the pleasure of playing in not one but two basketball games. These were for a co-ed and a graduate/faculty/staff intramural team that I play on every year. They are the Underdogs, which is a pretty sweet setup for me since the originator of the Underdogs every year organizes everything for us and we just have to play. Unfortunately I am unable to play the rest of the regular season due to schedule conflicts, but I’ll be able to play with them for playoffs.
After finishing both games I decided to stop and get groceries since I haven’t really done that in like…ummm…ok I don’t remember but will assume its happened in the last year. I went in, got a cart, and started filling it up with stuff. The only problem is that since I had just finished playing two hours of basketball I was really thirsty and basically bought everything that was liquid and not much else. Pictured below are some of the items I purchase (while talking with Demoree I started aligning the bottles along the edge of the counter and before I knew it I had a pretty decent line up) plus I bought a half gallon of milk, half gallon of orange juice, and a box of Capri Suns. Even worse off was that after buying the most groceries I’ve bought in many months I still only got salsa, bananas, oranges, a block of cheese, yogurt, and Hot & Spicy Cheez-Its (FYI: they are really good). I didn’t even have anything that I could put together out of that for dinner…I had half a bag of chips that I used to eat chips and salsa, which is apparently the only thing I’m now capable of purchasing for myself to eat.

Some of the drink options purchased for myself in my attempt to go grocery shopping.

i STILL think it's funny that you bought so many drinks... i guess while some people shouldn't go shopping while hungry, you shouldn't go shopping while thirsty? :)

Hilarious!! It does look like an army. As to the bottled water, it might not be a bad idea to buy a gallon jug then fill and refill a water bottle. It might be cheaper that way. ;o)
