Hi Lorna
thank you........now I can resume my normal self!!!!![]()
So tonight we all went to a favorite area restaurant that is somewhere between TGIFridays and fine dining -- kinda like Springfield Grille (Shell and Bill will get that reference. But we love it to the point that we buy ourselves a giftcard every Christmas - which we had not yet used coz I kept forgetting to take it so we were going to use it tonight.
I got there early to get our name in. We waited 70 minutes for a table which wasn't horrible. Then we sat down. OMG they couldn't have screwed up more. I had to say something. Just mentioned in a very pleasant tone to our server what was wrong. And there was plenty. The worst was that Emily was coughing. Server kept "forgetting" the water to the point that the next table was asking if she was okay and offering their water to her. To the point that I had to kind of bark at him that the kids needed water. It really was some of the worst service (and kitchen screw ups) combined that I have ever seen.
Owner came out. Insisted on buying our dinners. Mina gave server tip, tried to talk to him. Completely awkward moment. So the gift card we were planning to use is still in my pocket.
What a night.
Best watch out you guys....'specially YOU Greg.... Woo is in da house!

OK, when I said please don't make me catch up on 20 pages, I guess I really meant like 10 pages. SHEESH!
Thanks for all the wishes for Dad. It's been a LONG day, but surgery went well and now with his new shoulder we can hum the Bionic Man theme song to him all the time. Actually, he went into surgery 2.5 hours late and didn't get out until 5:30 then couldn't get into post-op blah blah blah ... long story short, just got home after dropping Mom off at my brothers without ever seeing Dad. But we'll be up there in the morning.
