Tesco with Tourettes

Teso + Tourettes = absolute nightmare! Especially now. There is Corona which means my coughing tic could make people think that I have it. I don't by the way, don't worry. And then there is the fact that I have got a very, very loud gob. Anyone who knows me well knows that I can't shut up (thank you very much Tourettes). It's like Catchphrase, I say what I see.

Tesco today was absolutely ridiculous. With the new rule, wearing masks in shops (which is a big problem, I am very claustrophobic- ha, I spelt it right!), I was having a bit of trouble breathing. I focused all of my energy into trying not to hyperventilate and this did stop my coughing tic but not the taking a mahoosive deep breath one. Which probably made me look even weirder than I do. The deep breaths I was taking made my glasses steam up and I couldn't see a god damn thing! There's also a weird man who works at Tesco who gives me the heebie-jeebies- it's the eyes- and it is very hard to not say anything when he passes me. Incredibly hard.

We got to the self-service without my big mouth saying anything strange. Until that strange guy came and asked me and my mum, "Can I take your basket?" I said, "Jesus, he creeps me out so much," after he said that and I really hope that he was out of earshot, just in case, I'M SORRY TESCO MAN!

Walking back up the street towards the crossing, there was a woman with a pushchair coughing her guts up. Not literally but you get the point. We waited for her to pass because the corner is quite narrow and she didn't say thank you. I mean, some people just do not have the blinking manners. My lovely gob (Bob) decided to shout, "You are very welcome and I don't want Corona, I thank you very much."

Tourettes is very eventful!
