I walked to the bus station but first I stopped at Joe’s Pizza. I had planned to buy a couple slices but instead I bought a whole pizza. The cashier said it would be 5 minutes then she said something else that I didn’t understand. I repeated back the word to her for a confirmation. She confirmed, but it was a word I was not familiar with. Then she gestured to go in the restaurant. I said, “that’s okay”, and asked her to say the word one more time. As I punched the characters into the cellphone I thought, “Wow, another ‘come and go’ verb”.
This is the third time this month that I’ve discovered a verb with “come” or “go” in it. I just had to do a Come and Go post.
