Me either. Truthfully, I don't even really like it when the clerks comment
on what you're buying and ask "what time is dinner" or something along those
lines.

Thanks! The problem you have is the huge reason why I like that Out
of Milk program Ophelia recommended (mine didn't come with one - just
an app for notes, which could be shopping lists. The shopping list(s)
is in the cloud and accessible from any machine you use.

Agree! I just need to make sure my battery is well charged before I
go shopping or bring my portable charger with me. The thing I like
the least about my phone is the battery life... which reminds me, I
was going to order a couple of new batteries and haven't done it yet.

I just got a new phone last month. The most incredible battery life
ever AND you can swap out batteries. It has a feature that will turn
the screen to gray tones instead of color and, in that mode will go like
12 days without a charge (so the thingie on the phone says).

It's a Samsung S5 and it's by far (out of 3) my very favorite Android.
It's a big, hulking son of a gun, especially in its Otter Box protector,
but it's so easy to text with and so easy to use. I'm in love with it.

Signed,

the electronic toy lady

Yay, I guess correctly because I was reading just this morning about
the Samsung 5 (drool). After many, many years of being a regular
Verizon subscriber - we went over to a MTM Verizon MVNO, called
Selectel, last Fall and haven't looked back. The only thing I regret
about the move is not being able to upgrade my phone on the cheap via
contract. I certainly don't miss being charge through the kazoo for
minutes I'll never use plus the extra charge for data.

why don't you just dictate instead of typing to text? Look under
'Settings', then 'Language and Input'.

Don't they all have a little microphone symbol somewhere? Even my old
Samsung Fascinate has that. The input methods for mine are only swype
and keyboard because voice is always an option.

Although my diction is pretty good, somehow having lost a chunk of
tongue messes up those voice readers. Today I was trying to get through
to United Air Lines and their automated man could not understand a
single word. Finally I got through to a human.

Wanted to see if I could upgrade to first on my flights to Europe and
back. I had the miles but they wanted $500 per leg extra. The whole
R/T was not much more than that. I'll probably move myself to the
"blue" seats with a bit more leg room for the longer flights. They are
less expensive.

I once tried to dictate frozen peas into the phone and it came out
"floozie pants"

I admit to it. I not only look then, but if I see someone seriously
studying labels. I look then too. I have frequently had people stop me and
ask about various foods. Particularly when I had to buy gluten free foods.
I know people were looking into *my* cart because they stopped me and asked
about foods and recipes. I have exchanged emails with people that I met at
the store when they had a recipe for me or I had one for them.

I also tend to buy a lot more produce than most people do and I have had
people ask me about that as well. I don't buy as much now as I did when I
was a raw vegan. But whenever I see someone buying only fresh produce and
nothing else, I assume that they must be a raw vegan.

I do look. Not so much to judge people but to imagine what they will be
doing with it. If it's all processed stuff, there isn't much to imagine. I
often see seniors buying small frozen meals. That's kind of sad.

I only had that happen once. It was a huge big young man at a QFC. I was
buying pot roast and vegetables and he asked if he could come over to
dinner. I could be wrong but I got the impression that he was flirting with
me. I wasn't married then. Said that my boyfriend probably wouldn't like
that and then he looked sad.

I guess I don't mind it so much if someone I see regular asks something like
that. Perhaps if they did, I just don't remember it. But if it's someone
I've never seen before, it can make me uncomfortable.

Sure I cringe. I don't like to see junk. However, I don't really care what
other people buy. I don't know why they are buying it or who they are
buying it for. Over the years I have bought groceries for many different
people. They don't necessarily eat what I do.

A long, long time ago, I took shorthand. The instructor had grown up
in South Carolina and had lived in Texas for a number of years. Taking
dictation from her was a real treat ;o) I bet your phone does better
than I did in shorthand class.

Why else would women wear a $40 bra to go grocery shopping? *Real*
women live to be ogled.

That might be a wrong assumption. I was at Food 4 Less the other day and all
I had was fresh produce in my cart, nothing else.

Whenever I'm filling my cart with family packs women can't
resist checking out my meat... I've had women accost my pepperoni.
I've had women paying rapt attention while I explained what to do with
a ten pound breast of veal. Youd be amazed at how women enjoy my
explanation about how to choose a tender breast... I've got it down to
a science!

But! I'll bet she would have known what it meant! And gotten a chuckle
out of it.

When it comes to typing, though, this is one reason I dislike auto
spell-check. If I make a typo or a spelling error, it's mine... not
something selected by a program automatically just in case I screw up.

How the hell would you know what their bras cost? Are you following
them around in the lingerie department at the local Seed & Feed?

I wonder if the preservatives are working on them or if they don't
have good enough health care to know what's wrong with them - yet.

I still laugh about it when I think of it.

I had to turn around and look today because I heard a lot of banging and
whamming behind me today while in line. Turns out that it was an elderly
woman. Of course not all elderly people do this and I've never seen an
elderly man to this but she was forcefully hurling her food down onto the
counter. It's almost as if they lose control of their fine motor skills or
something. I saw a huge bag of M & Ms, some cans of Campbell's condensed
soup, small things like yogurt, cheese and some meat and produce. So this
woman clearly does cook. I wouldn't have even noticed her though had she
not been making all that noise.
