What do the neighbors think now?

When my room-mate Lisa and I go to the grocery store, we usually laugh and have a good time while doing our shopping. One time a clerk at the Wal-mart in Wichita, KS actually told us that it was "really cool to have happy people in the store"...this was after I had asked him to call security "because this strange woman is following me" and then she (Lisa) said she was going to stuff me in the big freezer. Neither one of us could keep a straight face so he figured out pretty quick we were teasing ;-)

Today, I think I completely blew any chance I had of getting a date in this area (we live in a small farm town)...while heading towards the bakery aisle, I said "Do we need some sugar, suga?" Apparently I said it loud enough to turn quite a few heads. I'm sure it is all over the area now about those *funny* women that were at the store today. Needless to say, we were in the bakery aisle giggling like we were back in junior high.

When we got home, Lisa was carrying some bags to the house, while I was waiting at the car for her to bring the cart back. After she had gone into the fenced area (where nobody else could see her), I heard the cereal box fall and hit the ground so I yelled out "OMG! You're a cereal killer!!!!" Then I heard an odd noise across the street...turned around and standing in their yard, watching (and listening) to me was our neighbors who moved in about three weeks ago, whom we haven't met yet. Without saying a word, they grabbed their little girl, turned and went into their house.

Somehow, I don't believe an invitation to come over and visit will be coming from them in the immediate future...
