Why I shouldn't have sugar at lunch.

Today at work I accidentally asked a customer out. 

Boy was that weird. 

He got a test-booster from the locked case, which means that if he needs to do any other shopping before he checks out, I need to hold on to the product for him until he's ready. 

What I mean to ask him after he was done picking out his product was 

"Are you doing any other shopping today?"

What came out was 

"Are you doing anything else today?" 

after which of course I tried to recover and say something about checking out but that only made things worse. 

He had a dull look on his face the whole time so maybe he didn't realize the embarrassment I had just caused myself, or he was just being nice and let me get away with it; something my coworkers were kind enough to help me remember. 

This almost ranks up there with the time I was trying to explain to an old lady that we were out of coleus forskohlii, the words got jumbled on the way from my brain to my mouth and I told the lady that we were fresh out of foreskin. No amount of jokes about Jewish babies could have saved face there--nor would they have worked judging from the look on her face.
