One of Jedikiah's favorite things about summer, and school not being in session, was that he actually had the opportunity to get his grocery shopping done at an hour that meant he could actively avoid the stranger element in town as well as the major rush. What? He was a surprisingly simple man, that he could be made happy by that sort of thing, and he'd readily admit it.
Either that or he was just getting old. Which, oh God, he was creeping up on fifty. Way to go, he'd just made himself feel old.
The thought didn't last long, though, as he was more focused on getting what he needed and getting out -- he had other things to do and Walmart at eight in the morning was, while helpful, not exactly a place he wanted to be in for very long. Impatient or just a snob, tough call sometimes.
He'd actually remembered a list -- one more tick in the "just getting old" column, for him -- and was halfway through it when he ran into someone blocking what he needed. Thankfully, not a literal run-in, because that would have been awkward. "Excuse me," he said with a smile. "Just let me reach past you for a second and I'll be out of your hair."
