i wrote this quickly

another fresh and easy story: pumpkin pie and i went to shop for groceries for the green salon. i found a couple decent bottles of wine while we were getting things... and at self-check, the helper girl came to verify my id to buy alcohol... obviously im old and there was no problem. then she wanted to verify pumpkin pies id. he carries his wallet in his messenger bag because he rides his bike to work, saving the environment. and he didnt have his messenger bag/wallet with him... AND SHE WOULDNT SELL ME WINE BECAUSE HE DIDNT HAVE ID. she kept asking him my address --do any of you know my address??? and why would knowing it make you old enough to buy wine? i was in crazy-world. we called the manager and he treated us like shit, saying pumpkin pie -- who is 24 (but does look very young) -- was obviously underaged and i couldnt buy him alcohol. pumpkin pie doesnt drink, not a drop... i tried to explain that two bottles of wine was the bare minimum i needed for myself just to put up with this bullshit... then i left my cart of food and will never shop there again. behind me, a woman with a baby in her cart also had wine but nobody asked for the babys id.
