Last night it was late and we knew we were cutting it close but we drove down to this local barbeque place that we frequent quite a bit.  Since most everything is pre-cooked we usually just tell them what we want, they hand it to us and off we go to our seat to eat.

So we get there last night about 8:45pm (yes they close at 9) and we get our food and we are paying for it.  Then miss attitude starts.  No not my wife hehe, but one of the workers at this establishment and here was her quote, “If I get another to-go order tonight I’m going to cut someones head off.” I looked at the cashier as was like, I’m glad mine is not to go and then looked at my wife and we kind of chuckled but in the ‘that was rude’ type of chuckle.

So we sit down and we just happen to pick a place close to where this girl was going to be doing her “Closing Duties.”  The entire time we were there she was having a cow.  At one point she slammed a tray down on the counter cause I guess she needed to roll up some forks and knives and then by 5 minutes after 9 with probably 20 people left  “Still EATING” she started to undo all the nozzles from the fountain drinks and took away all the tea so basically no one could get any refills.  This poor guy didn’t know and went up to get some more coke and hit the switch and crapped sprayed all over him.  Did she stop him and tell him it’s down…  NO..  she just let him do it.  Then she was rude to a little boy asking if there was still any ice cream to buy.

It was really painful.  Part of me wanted to extend my stay awhile just to see what would happen.  I’m going to write in to the management about this cause in my opinion, you are there to service the customer and not talk about cutting off heads and slamming things around, etc. etc.

Hope she got a good nights sleep, lol…

It’s Christmas time, and that usually means lots of chocolate, goodies, candy, etc.  Also means a time to use a acne treatment. It’s not often, but this time of year adds to the potential.  This year I did pretty good, since I cannot eat most cookies, but the candy and chocolate, yeah I did a good job with those.  In fact I will have to leave some behind.  I just cannot eat it all.

Hopefully I will not break out.  So far so good, but with today being our last day with family, I just might have more cause in 2009 no more.  Now on to some healthy cooking.

Home for the holidays and now the food is all around.  Although I love this time of year, and the food that comes along with it, I do not like trying to watch the weight..  I mean come on food is awesome during the holidays.  But for some maybe dropping some Leptovox and doing some work outs.  But if your like me, you probably do not want to work out while your on vacation.

Now there is a 24 hour fitness down the street, but since it just started snowing again, don’t think the car will make it and the wind chill is freezing…

Later:
My story of our trip yesterday and all the snow that fell last night.

With Thanksgiving rapidly approaching that can only mean one thing..  FOOD..!!  Yes with a double dose of Holiday foods can attack you from all sides.  So you have to watch out.  Then the day after Thanksgiving you have to start working out, drop a diet pill, and slow down the eating for a few weeks to catch up before the onslaught of Christmas FOOD..!!!

I’m really looking forward to having some turkey.  And it’s only 2 weeks away.  The desserts however I’m thankful I cannot eat, cause those really add to your stomach and then you end up in a food coma, LOL..

But I love this time of year and looking forward to seeing some family I haven’t seen in a long time next week, and be able to somewhat have 4 days off..  (I’m always on call)

Are you all ready for the thanksgiving weekend coming up?
