Ya know, it's strange, because I thought walking past 'that' aisle felt strange, too. Actually, I felt this shadow of anxiety about having to do it, but then (and this is what made it strange that the aisle bugged me)I realized how ridiculous that was considering there are bottles of liquor in my house I could have drank that were already mine and if I could resist that temptation, surely it's no big deal walking past them in the store.
