Today I went to Wal-Mart because, for whatever reason, they have a broader spectrum of dead animals available for consumption. The local grocery chain didn't have beef liver (!) or lamb. Wal-Mart has all that and alligator steaks. Yeah.
I'm leaving the parking lot and briefly see this energetic boy (maybe 10-12 yrs.) putting away the cart in the designated area. I also see an SUV start to make its way out of the lot. Then I hear, "MOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!! WAAAAIIIITTT!!!!!" Lady up and nearly drove off without her kid. At first I thought, "Okay, she's doing that pulling away prank, just to tease him" - but that thought vanished as she made her way to the
other goddamn side of the lot. The kid ran, and I guess she finally heard him, stopped, and let him in the car. I laughed.
