While grocery shopping today I realized I haven't evolved all that much. I'm still a hunter-gatherer. The venue has changed, but my instincts remain strong.
My eyes constantly scan the horizon for the dangers of wild carts. I ruthlessly hunt for the lowest price per ounce, pluck the ripest produce and tuck away hunks of meat. I will not be beaten to the checkout line. The hungry will be fed in my family.
Okay, maybe I got a bit carried away. But it sure made today's shopping trip more fun visualizing everyone in a Neanderthal light. I hope I didn't snarl on the way out of the store!
