No Shoes, No Shirt, No... No Sweaty Hairy Armpits! 
  
 
Ok so I had to make a quick dash to the grocery store to pick up some flank steak for a little trick I was prepping for.

Now, I think I have made it very clear that it's hot here.  So you see people all over in all different stages of undress.  And by that I mean you see a lot of men sans shirts.

And, I think I should tell you that one of my many (many) pet peeves is a sweaty hairy armpit that is out in the open.     I made this fact very clear to the husband early on in our relationship.  I mean, I am human.  A muscular bare chest is very appealing to the eye.   But the bare chest belongs at home, in a gym, at the beach, at the pool ... you get the idea. 

 
It's the arm pit I don't want to see - or have in my face.

 
So I am at the grocery store  ( a store with signs very clearly visible stating that you have to be dressed properly to be inside) with flank steak in hand and I ran over to the paper products aisle to pick up some toilet tissue (The Husband called alerting me of the "no toilet tissue" crisis at home) and a gentleman behind me said, "Excuse my reach" and I turned to get out of his way and was face to face with his sweaty hairy armpit.  He was sans shirt and there was the armpit just staring at me - all the sweat beads gathered on the ends of the hair.

Imagine my joy.

 
"Oh Sweet Mother of God..."
 
"What?"
 
"It's just - Sorry - I have armpit issues"
 
"Oh - yeah- well, it's hot"

Sometimes I think I just need to move to a place with no grocery stores.

 
Or people.
