Spending today Jan 18/09

A friend picked me up this afternoon and we went out for coffee/tea. I paid 5.71 for coffee, tea and a muffin ( We went to a restaurant) my friend left the tip. The waitress sat us by a table that had a major draft by it by patio doors covered in plastic and you could see the bottom moving in and out and it was freezing, and we asked to be moved. She said something about the table we wanted having different place settings ( just change the place settings Sorry honey but I do the same thing with a smile on my face, if some one doesn't like the seat, we'll try to accommodate them if at all possible)

She was not a happy waitress, we moved to the table we wanted , and she did everything begrudgingly. ( If I was her manager I'd fire her, what a crappy attitude).We almost left, but there was no one else there so we stayed ( I really like the restaurant there). My friend and I had a great chat sans children. My friend has somethings going on and just needs someone else to talk to on occasion.

The storm has started here and its warmed up quite a bit. So there maybe no school again tomorrow. I'll get to work by mother taxi...

My house is clean, the laundry is almost finished and I can go back to work feeling like i accomplished something this weekend. I may even bake later on tonight....

Sounds like a fussy waitress indeed if you were the only ones there!!

The storm has started here too, it's not so bad but there is some accumulation in the drive way. I hope the ride to work isn't too bad.

Don't you hate it when you get a bad attitude like that? It's awful from anyone but particularly annoying from a waitress, because it can spoil your entire event. And if you're frugal, going out is a treat. Glad you enjoyed your time with your friend anyway.
