So after a fun day at Thanksgiving Point, which will be blogged about later, all of Shaun's fam packed into the CRV to go and get a burger at the deli there. Much to Audrey's dismay--it was closed. Which was the first comical thing because of her outrageous reaction...due to her insane diet, she has "meat days" sparingly and she wanted a hamburger from there before the day ended. So instead, we head to:
it may have been because we had just spent the day outside in outrageously high temperatures, because we were boiling. We couldn't feel the AC at all. KC came up to us saying we needed to leave because they said the AC was broken. As we are headed out the door Shaun explained to the hostess saying
"..you having trouble with your guys' AC huh?"
"...no.."
"oh, well..sorry.."
"we can turn the AC down if that's the only reason you're leaving"
.and scene.
We then go down the street to:
Applebee's is not all that glorious but this was even worse than normal. We get seated and the floor underneath our table is covered in filth---and this was not just my germ freak insides speaking. Audrey was sticking to the table so we asked for a cloth. The waitress than plopped what seemed to be one, but was more in the condition of a mop that had just wiped a floor covered in things we do not want to discuss. We were debating on leaving again (in-between me hysterically laughing my head off). The waitress had already brought out our waters and she said:
Waitress: "do you need another minute?
SJ: "yeah we do, thank you"
Audrey: "yeah we just need one more minute, we're talkin 'bout some stuff"
We all just lost it.
(Although, where we were going to eat that night was turning into a very personal matter!)
Supposedly just getting up and walking out wasn't our thing because we left it up to pregnant Margaret to fake sick and walk out with Ryan first. Margaret being the happy person that she is, was just all smiles walking out and Ryan was whispering in her ear "SICK. You're supposed to be sick!"
When all else fails where do you go?
-actually that should be your first choice, I know.
After explaining to our waiter Nate that the pressure was really on because this was the THIRD restaurant we had been to that night, it was time to order. Audrey goes ahead and orders the new bleu cheese something-or-other burger and the waiter was confused. We then realized that burger was in-fact the special at Applebees. You know you have been to too many restaurants when you are ordering other menu items.
Texas of course did not disappoint and it was a funny, hyper dinner to end our time in Provo. It honestly was one of the funniest moments that I have had in a long time. All of this while carting Kevin & Audrey in the back of the CRV like dogs. (Which we forgot to let them out quite a few times). Things that are hilarious are fun. And it makes it better when it's with your fam.
