As I stood in line at the Dollar General - yes, I mock them but they do have great prices - it dawned on me what I was buying. Not that I didn't know what I had, but that it occurred to me that there was something odd or incongruent about it. You see, I was buying mouthwash - a potty mouth like mine needs it - and snack cakes.
Of course, maybe that's not so out of line. One purchase was to get a hefty dose of sugar, the other to remove the sugar from my teeth, thus avoiding dental problems.
So maybe - just maybe - it wasn't so odd. And maybe - just maybe - I want an excuse to overemploy dashes this morning.
