Yes!

Just give me food!
For some reason order takers can read too much into simple requests. I think responses I'd never say to someone about to handle my food. I regularly have this conversation when ordering a sandwich:

Can I have a ___________ with mustard, no mayo?

"Is (choose one or more) lettuce, tomatoes, onions, ketchup or other dressings or toppings okay?"


I think but would never say, did I say no lettuce, tomatoes, etc.? Did I say "just meat and bread"? I just asked for no yucky sandwich gunk.

That doesn't mean I don't want anything else that normally is served on the sandwich.

Good point.

But C-D moderators, in particular, deserve a raise, don't you think?

Sigh. I went to the grocery store yesterday. I spent $200. But I forgot two basic things and now I need to go back. Oh, and I also forgot gravy mix (because I never buy it but I need it for some recipe) and had to stop at ANOTHER grocery store and pick up two packets of gravy mix. And then I ended up also buying a People magazine and some breath mints - but did I remember to buy the two basics that I'd forgotten earlier? Heck no.

And I had to do all this running around in the rain too. Not a drizzle - pouring rain. Plus it was cold. At least I got to wear winter clothes for the first time this season so that was nice.

Oh, that reminds me of another first world problem I just had - I have so many clothes that I store the "off season" ones in the guest room closet. Which is upstairs. So I had to do my twice yearly running up and down the stairs with armfuls of clothes thing. I hate that.

I now have an electric car and no longer have to stop for gas, which was the bane of my existence.

I drove cross country recently. I went to the beach, but I didn't have my beach chair, so I just sat directly on the sand. And then, when I stood up, I had mucho sand-o in the crack-o.

Also, I stepped on what I believe to have been a flounder while in the water. It was flat and slippery and I exclaimed, "ew, ew, ew, ew, ewwww!" repeatedly. The flounder couldn't have enjoyed the experience, either.

Raining a lot so had to drive 20 minutes away to an indoor court.

I hate indoor tennis.

Can't believe I ate a family sized desert in one sitting...... But at least it was a single family serving instead of two.
Did you get sand in your teeth? ;D
