Sorry no pics for Part 2

Boy- I better get a move on this report- I am going to forget what the heck I did on my vacation!

OK- Day 5- Part 2

We skipped out on Mamas so we had to use our TS somewhere else. I am so tired of eating by day 5- I could just…burst AND

BUT! Before heading out tonight for EPCOT we head on over to the hotel lobby concierge desk and see if they can get us a ressie for Alfredos tonight. They actually had a few times to choose from- so we took 8:50.

We are strolling through EPCOT doing our usual “lets try THIS drink!” and shopping, enjoying the night. We NOW have to stop strolling and go eat….again! I really think this reservation thing is cramping my style- I like to just hang out at the parks and eat when I am hungry, but this is getting ridiculous. I am not liking this whole ADR thing anymore.

We show up at Alfredos and the girl tells us she doesn’t even have us down for having ressies- but they have tables so we are seated. Yes- we are seated next to this guy who did NOT SHUT UP THE ENTIRE NIGHT!!!! OMG! For those of you who have been there- you know how close some of the seats are- well me being the neurotic one - I usually ask for a table by itself—off in a corner hiding somewhere—sorry but I do not like to share my dining experience or my conversation with other people….unless I know you…… and know you quite well at that! But this time- for some reason- I didn’t even think to ask. Like I said this guy never shut up! He was talking to his girlfriend the whole time- who, by the way could not get a word in! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD--- SHUSH- PLEASE! To top it off- he also spoke Italian. Great- so this meant the waitress just LOOOOVED him! They had to talk about Italy blah blah- nothing wrong with Italians, or Italy- hey I am Italian. I couldn’t even understand my grandmother the entire time she was alive- b/c she spoke Italian! She and my grandfather were right off the boat!

Our waitress takes our order- no problem- however DH and I could not have a conversation b/c the dude next to us was so loud- so- we just kind of….ate, and once in a while we would see our waitress at our table- but would see her constantly at his! Babbling- blah blah blah (not sure how to spell BLAH in Italian!)

Of course the food was good. BUT—then comes dessert- she asked if we knew what we wanted and we did- but she didn’t even offer to bring over the dessert tray (DH said b/c we knew what we wanted- and I just told him to hush up mister! She is a just sucky waiteress!) She asked about coffee- DH wanted an espresso and I told her I would have decaf coffee- out she comes with DH’s espresso and our desserts…but......hello? Where’s MY coffee? She brought the check out and I told her I wanted to be sure she didn’t charge us for the coffee b/c I never got it. She said no its not on there b/c you never said you wanted coffee!! AHHHHHHHH! YEAH! I DID! I just sat back- whatever! She brings the check over to us for the additional items that were not included on the meal plan. It came to about 12 dollars and some change- DH leaves her a 20- and she said she would be back with the change- DH said to keep the change! I, for sure, thought he lost his mind and maybe he didn’t realize he was going to leave her an 8.00 TIP!!!! So I spoke up and said no- we need change. DH then said again- no keep it. So then I figured- OK he DOES know he is leaving the waitress who was non existent our whole meal, and forgot to bring my coffee to me even after I most certainly ordered it and told me I didn’t an 8.00 tip!….on a 12.00 bill!

WELL! Miss waitress KNEW I was peeeeeee-oooooooo’d! She comes back all nicey nice with my coffee and told me it was her mistake that I did order it but she forgot etc etc! I just looked at her and said…..I -----don’t----want--- it! And got up and left.

Needless to say- this was not a very good night for DH and I. I think, deep down, I may have been hurt b/c HE KNEW I ordered the coffee and HE KNEW she forgot but she made ME feel like I was crazy and maybe I didn’t order it! And he left her a really good tip……she sucked as a waitress. She did not deserve that much.

But as DH and I do- we make up, OK well it took till the next morning- but we cant be mad on Day 6 we are doing the SEGWAY tour at EPCOT!!!!!

Maddhatir words of wisdom----Life is too short to be mad (at each other) however, I still hate the waitress! B*&CH!
