Eight dollars

Patience.
Close encounters...

At Trader Joe’s. The cashier starts ringing me up and asks, “How are you?”
“I’m awesome. How are YOU?”
“I’m good!”, she laughs, “That will be $8 even.”
“I did that on purpose.”
“Really!?”
“Yup. All my purchases. All day. Right on the dollar.”
“That’s amazing!”
“Well… It would be. But it’s not.”
“Why not!?”
With a smile, “Because this is the only thing I’ve purchased all day!”

She bursts out laughing — and then I walk away like a guy who only pays for things in whole dollar amounts.
