I startled cutegirl. I bought these frozen dinners that were Indian -- but they didn't have any rice, and they felt incomplete, so today, I went downstairs and bought a little rice (it wasn't basmati, but it would do)...and a Nantucket Nectars Half & Half (mah favorite). Went to pay, cutegirl started to bag my order, and I said something I've said probably a hundred times to her -- "I don't need a bag" -- in the way I always say it. I think it was at that point that she recognized me, but she didn't look too happy.
The bald guy who worked there said something in solidarity though, expressing his approval. So that was cool.
