Sassy Black Friend

Brain freeze

Not the kind caused by margarita slurping (assuming you engage in that kind of shameless behavior). I mean where your brain just stops working. It could be in the middle of a sentence, or as you’re sitting at a traffic light.

For me, it happened this morning in the grocery store. I was thinking about the stuff I needed to rewrite about a new thermogenic fat burner, what results I wanted to include and which medical sources to check. Then, suddenly, when it was my time to check out, I checked out.

I’d lost my discount card a couple of weeks ago and keep forgetting to grab the boyfriend’s when I shop. The guy asked for my phone number to use instead, and I had no idea what it was. I just stared at him for a good 20 seconds.

He clearly thought I was stupid or high, and just used a different card for my discounts.

For the record, I do know what my phone number is, but now I have to find a new grocery store to shop at.
