Saturday morning started with Mike waking me earlier than anyone should ever get out of bed on a Saturday. We spent the morning looking at and test driving many cars, some very impractical others fitting . We then rushed home to take the boys to karate as Cindy worked the night before and was in bed. After dropping them, we went to yet other lots to look and drive a couple more. There was some talk on whether we could let alone should buy the sports car that was an awesome deal but not very practical. Try as I may Mike really resisted going back to reality and test driving a practical Malibu after the Camero. he finally gave in but asked how I could expect him to be excited about "wheat bread" when he has "candy" staring him in the face. We needed a perspective break so went to get the kids. Though we did try again, we just couldn't go back out looking and besides most of the lots were closing anyway.Saturday night Mike and I had tickets to an Air Supply concert. Remember them from the 80's ? yep thirty four years and still touring with the same material. Mike and I both had a great time even though it was the first concert that we have been at in years and we were still ( with maybe the exception of ten or less)the youngest there. After a fabulous trip down Memory lane, Mike and I headed to Perkins for a late night snack ( it was almost 11:00) Perkins was not by any means busy but our server was so bad that I ended up walking out an hour later without eating. In a nutshell We sat down and waited ten minutes,at which time the Hostess came and took our drink orders. before she got our drinks to us she had to seat a few parties and cash out a couple others. Five minutes went by and our server came with our drinks ( summery.... 15 minutes we get drink) Mike and I ordered a dinner and an appetizer ( my meal) to be delivered together ( easy enough )Forty minutes were spent talking and finishing our drinks, when our appetizer came out. because our server disappeared,another had the appetizer.( so much for served together) Our server had wrote the wrong table number on the ticket so it was taken and sat at the table next to us. ( in front of six teenagers, at least one of whom touched the food before telling the server that it was not theirs ( hey in the kids defense, chicken fingers sort of look like ice cream sundaes which they ordered) After being told there was a mistake, the server picked up the plate and asked the table on the other side if it was theirs. Though they did not even have their drinks yet, they said yes they ordered that item. It was left with them. When our server heard where the plate went she began flailing her arms and went to another table before telling us that our food had been misdelivered and we would be waiting longer(Thank goodness that i am anemic or my blood would have boiled over) anyway I asked for another drink and we reiterated that we wanted our food together, so to time the new appetizer with the dinner. We were assured that both would be up in five minutes. OK... Three minutes later here comes our server with the dinner. " It was up and I didn't want to leave it back there so here" was said as it was plopped on the table. OK, that was it I had had it. I got up told her that she could take the food back and left. Mike drove us to Burger king for a burger within three minutes.
Sunday started like any but the afternoon consisted of a late Birthday celebration with my Mom. Though it was simply my family and Mom and Dad for the most part my Brother stopped by with his English Mastiff for a short while. We relaxed and talked a bit and it was time to go home and have the kids ready themselves for Monday morning. All in all it was a good weekend with Beautiful weather but I am exhausted.Oh well my list today is so long that it will be bed time before I know it. Pictures to come...
