True story:
This afternoon as I was checking out at a local store in Lago Vista, Texas the cashier exclaimed,
“I know you!”
I looked at her in bewilderment because I didn’t recall ever having seen her before.
She continued, “Didn’t your ex-husband used to work down the street at the Dollar General?”
I chuckled, “No, all of my
ex-husbands live in Florida and none of them ever worked at Dollar General.”
She laughed, “All! How many do you have?”
I replied, “Let’s just say my song would be titled:
🎶 None of my exes live in Texas 🎶
Then I gathered my bags and gestured goodbye as she chuckled to herself trying to guess the number that I refused to disclose.
