Would like some tea?


 I meant to take a lot of pics at the antique places we went, specially the first but only took 3 or 4. This was one of them.

It has been a rainy, dark day.  And was kind of hectic to begin with.  I stopped by the grocery to pick up 4 things before I went on to Mcdonald's for Roger standard breakfast.  I go the the self-check to pay and realized I had left my wallet in the car.  I always take it out and put it in the cup holder till I am not searching for it when I pay at Mcds and forgot to get it when I went in the grocery.  

Just so you know, I did not know for sure I was stopping...if it was raining hard, I was going to skip it.  But it was only misting so I thought I might as well stop and pick up the items.

Then I get to McDonald's....I could barely hear the girl when she asked me what I wanted.  I think some of them forget to turn on something.  Anyway, I ordered, and paid, then got to the window to pick up my food.  She asks did I get a large coffee and a large Coke...I said no, just a large coffee...no Coke.  She asks 'Diet Coke?' I said no, just a large coffee.  There was one sitting there and another girl handed her another...they tried to give me both of them...I said no, just the one...they told me i could have it for free.  I told them no, I can't drink it...it gives me heartburn and I was thinking to myself Roger only needs one...I finally convinced them to keep it.  

The kids there are really some super kids...I think the one was fairly new.  A couple have moved on I think or else work a different shift.  But I am sure they will find a good job cause they sure were polite and knew how to work.  It was always fun to chat with them a few seconds if not a big line.  If a big line, we didn't really talk any.

I made fried rice...I think it is only the second time since being here.  When we are tired of everything, it always tastes so good.
