Powerbar Goodness?

I went to HEB to pick up a couple of protein bars to eat at work, prior to going to the gym to work out. Upon looking at the selection, I select two, Cookies & Cream flavored and Peanutbutter and Chocolate. Needless to say the Cookies & Cream tasted neither like cookies, cream, or the combination. With a little luck the Peanutbutter and Chocolate bar will be better.

As I wait in line, I look at the two express check outs (This particular HEB did not have self check which is typically faster provided there isn't a line at them) and I move to the line with a female individual rather than a bunch of teenaged girls. So I am standing there with bars in hand and I notice she is looking right at me, I smile a bit and think nothing of it really.

Next thing I know she asks "so are you a student?" This catches me off guard, and I replied "yea, well I mean I was - I graduated." She asks me what I was doing now that I had graduated, to which I explained that I was looking for a job (career type job - I need out of where I am currently). She mentions that she is in business for her self, and I ask if she has a card. I gave her my number, and I received her card - which ironically is a "health product" business. So I can only assume that it was the Powerbars that I was holding drew her attention.

On the other hand, why she looking at what I was purchasing? I mean I glance and see what items others are picking up time to time - for example if you see a guy in his early to mid twenties picking up a suitcase of beer, some bacon and a pack of condoms one can only wonder. So what was it about Powerbars? We'll see if she calls back - and to answer a few possible lingering questions: yes she was somewhat attractive, and two yes she is married (quite the rock on the finger I may add too).

Oh and follow up to yesterdays rumor, T-Mac is a Rocket now. People are quick to crown them the new "Kobe & Shaq" tandem, although I don't think Jeff Van Gundy will allow T-Mac to play the way he did in Orlando, or really tolerate him being a cowboy as much.
