Cha-ching!













This is Mel. She works the cash register at the bookstore. I see her every day, but today I asked her, "Mel, can I take my picture with you by the cash register?" To which she answered, "Why?" "It's for a project I'm doing." "Ok, I guess." So I set the timer, put my arm around her and waited for the little light to flash. We looked at the picture afterwards. She said, "It looks like I'm your b***h." To which I responded, "Of course you are! But if it's any comfort I also look like I have an umbrella growing out of my head."

Is that Cleveland State? Looks like that store, but then all college bookstores look alike to me. I used to go there every few months for business.

In answer to all the questions and comments:

1. hand location shows who the real b---h is.

2. you'll always be my b---h, grack. : ) And yes, please take a photo with your local cashier's hand on an inappropriate place on your body. That's what we're all about here at YLSN(a)ED.

3. There are no books. It's not that kind of bookstore. (silly)

4. It's not Cleveland State, but yes they do all look the same.

5. No man can resist the blue apron. I don't even have to cook. I just wear the blue apron, carry a spatula and look menacing.

6. Steve, you can be my bench. (Birch was already taken.)

But did you tell her your life story? I like the mushroom head disguised as an umbrella.

I would also like to know who you are married to in this photo (ring)? And who do those baked goods belong to (lower right)? And is that a digitally de-hanced school t-shirt in the background?

Female ringdar always impresses me. Or, I guess it's more that I'm amazed how ring-blind I am. Right there - a shiny ring staring at us and it wasn't until the 10th poster that anyone picked up on it.

I assume you and [grac] ran off and e-loped?

That ring fits that hand. It has no other sentimental value. But thanks for asking. : )

(sigh) Story of my life. Always a bench, never a birch.

//Or, I guess it's more that I'm amazed how ring-blind I am.//

I know what you mean. I noticed all sorts of details in the photo but completely missed the ring, let alone that it was on the left hand.

At an opera event a few weeks ago, my wife and I struck up a conversation with a woman near the snack table. After a few minutes, my wife asked if her husband attends the opera with her. I managed to keep my face still during that panicked moment as I tried to figure out if we knew this woman from somewhere else, or how my wife would know that she is... oh, of course, she was wearing a wedding ring.

Haha! I can just picture you going all ashy white, World. Priceless.
