Grocery List, What's the Story?

As I was walking into the grocery store I dropped my keys. When I bent down to pick them up, they were lying next to a piece of paper, which I retrieved. There was no one else around who might have dropped it, so I stuck it in my pocket and trudged on. When I got inside I read it -- it was a grocery list. It was written on the back of a piece of real estate office stationery. (The office is located in another state.)
  • starter logs
    Earl Grey
    Kotex regular pads
    movies returned
    something sweet
There has to be a good story behind this list. Tell us your best guess.

I would guess that the list didn't belong to the person who dropped it (ie-- someone was shopping for the lady). I don't think if it were her list she'd need to write out Kotex regular pads! Well, part of the story...

if he really loved her he'd go to Costco and get her an 80 pack of the Kotex, thus saving face for a few months at the neighborhood grocery. :lol: :lol:

if he really loved her, he'd have said, "here are the keys. think of this as an adventure in preparedness and forethought"

not warding off, paying the ransome :wink:

And you know, he's a dead man when he walks into the house and she asks for her "something sweet." Because WHATEVER he pulls out of the bag, that is NOT what she had in mind, and she is now disapointed and questioning where thier relationship is going and how he does not understand her needs. All the poor sap did was follow her list and buy her "something sweet."

from personal experience, you don't roll over and take the undeserved beating on this one.
