a random thought...

do you ever feel as if the people who work at your local drugstore know entirely too much about what goes on inside your vagina?

you get your period, you go to the drugstore. you need condoms, you go to the drugstore. if the condom broke and you need a pregnancy test, you go to the drugstore. you get a yeast infection, you go to the drugstore.

I mean, I highly doubt that they keep a little sheet recording all the vagina-related purchases I've made, but even some of my *friends* don't know that much.

just a thought.

Lol, I have certainly felt that way... especially if I know the clerk casually or seem to keep getting the same one!!!

(one day, I bought myself condoms, my mom pads and my friend a pregnancy test all at the same time while getting a tube of Monostat having just used one, and always liking a reserve, because when you need it, well, you just need it... lol and the look on that poor teenage boy's face!!! lol!!!!)

Maybe it would be easier if you just go shopping at different drug stores, esp. different chains and independent mom-and-pop shops? That way they would have to sit down together to piece together pictures of your sex life and menstrual cycle...and it's highly unlikely they would.

well, I do that now, simply because there isn't one single drugstore that's near my apartment.

but these are last-minute things, generally, that I'm talking about, bought mainly when urgent or convenient to do so and without a great deal of forethought -- so when I loved by my mom's, I was lazy and pretty much just always went to the closest place.

I actually go to several different drug stores for that reason :) I'm sure the clerks don't mean to do it but I've gotten funny looks. I bought a box of tampons and there was a new teenage male as the clerk and he was straining to keep from giggling. Once I had a pregnancy scare and went to a 24 hour CVS drugstore to purchase a test. There was only one clerk and when I left the store, he stared at me and even craned his neck so he could watch me leave through the window.
