By 38 I should be fully Carmen Mirandized.
I'm going to be 36 in a few weeks, and today I realized that I'm now the lady in the checkout line who insists on putting the avocados in her purse after they're rung up. I'm officially so jaded, I can no longer trust other people with my soft produce.
And that's fine, okay, I can deal with that. But today when I snatched the avocados back from the cashier like some kind of deranged pitted fruit worshipper, I had to make room in my purse because there was already a tub of salsa in it.

I read your blog 2003 - 2007ish, and I just started again recently. Can't fathom why the break, you're awesomely funny. And cool. In an unconventional way.
Well, salsa does bruise easily.
Thanks, Debbie, that's nice of you.
In fairness, I'd purchased the salsa at another store and stuck it in my purse so it wouldn't get hot in the car. But- also in fairness- that's still weird.
Are you carrying a purse cooler yet? They're all the rage!
THAT is a fantastic idea. Especially in Phoenix, I could use one just for my Chapstick.
I read this and seriously the first thing that comes to mind: GUACAMOLE SALSA. Is there such a thing? Because there should be.
1.) I love you.
2.) Yes, please, GUACAMOLE SALSA. Phil, you are a genius.
3.) Once in the checkout at Meijer I reached for my wallet and realized that I had a banana in my purse and had an immediate panic attack because what if someone accused me of stealing the banana?
You guys, isn't guacamole salsa like a real thing for real? Whenever I make guacamole I always put salsa in it-- that's actually what I was making with the purse salsa and the purse avocados.
Kelly, honey, you know you stole that banana.
