5.3.19 13:46 DATELINE: UPTOWN LUNDS & BYERLYS - Allison told me there was a member sale on Bubly ($1.99) and could I pick up a box of favourite flavour Black Cherry and drop it off at the nearby workplace? I was gonna be over there to get a member sale $2.99 Lotzza Motzza for the freezer anyway, so sure, no problemo.

But.

I am at the "terrible sparkling water" aisle.

"Black Cherry" was clearly stated. OK.

I am at the Bubly selection.

I stare at the Cherry Bubly.

I stare at Blackberry Bubly.

I confirm there is no Black Cherry Bubly amongst the hundred varieties I'm seeing.

I read all the little pricetags to make sure there wasn't a Black Cherry space that might be unfilled. I see none.

I look back to Cherry.

I examine Blackberry.

I then notice Cranberry for some reason.

Why did Allison ask me for a nonexistent flavour? This is clearly some sort of test.

I text - "No Black Cherry. Is Cherry OK?"

Time passes.

I look at the Cherry.

I see the Blackberry right next to it.

Oh no, they're probably not checking messages at work - or it's too busy to check...

Cherry.

Blackberry?

Gotta be cherry.

Is it possible whichever one I pick will be fine?

No, whichever one I pick will be wrong.

Well, you can always exchange it.

I've spent too much time on this already.

Ya know, just don't ever offer to do nice things for anybody ever. The world is a cold, uncaring place and there's no possible good outc--

"Oh yeah haha sorry cherry is fine"

Phew.

CODA: They were out of "Lotzza Hotzza" and I had to settle for a sausage and mushroom. Not my finest grocerie hour on all fronts.
