Slow Checkout

So true, sometimes in life all you really want is a slow checkout. Maybe conversation isn't necessary, maybe it's just about not succumbing to the pressure of the queue. The need to get your groceries packed away quickly, the need to find your payment card and know your pin, gathering cash from an errant wallet or purse, stuffing fragile items into bags in the wrong order, the need not to be a perceived as some shambling, out of time nuisance with no regard for other people's precious time. Then again it may just be a euphemism for the long road home, going over the high side or a bigger sleep. If I was younger and taller I might consider a move to Holland.
