By Popular Demand

OK it's not really popular demand, Heather just thinks this story is funny so she asked me to tell it. 


Yesterday was the day I found out I was pregnant.  I had the gut feeling I was but had taken three test last week and all three were negative.  Tthat nagging feeling was there, so I went to Safeway at 6:00am yesterday morning to buy a pregnancy test. I decided to grab some other things I really needed namely 4 oversize pickles, and a stick of deodorant. The cashier gave me a funny look when I placed my eclectic selection of items on the counter and then wisely chose to coment on the pickles asking me if they were any good. I adamently told him yes or I would not be buying 4 of them (Terence says here's your sign).  I looked awkwardly back at the stranger behind me in the checkout line only to realize that the stranger was actually strangely familiar. Upon leaving the store, I realized he was the second counselor in the bishopric from when Terence and I were in the Singles Ward. I wonder if he recognized me?

That's pretty funny. Who was the person from the bishobric? Anyone I know that would make the story even funnier?
