Boy has a month just flown by! We just had our first ornament show and
spent weeks getting ready for that.
Then last week, my older brother---who is 47---had a freaking heart
attack. Oy.
He thought he'd eaten a bad meatball sub the night before. Woke up with
horrible "heartburn". When it didn't go away after taking Tums, his girlfriend
insisted that they go to the emergency room.
Good thing she did. He had the heart attack right there while they were
examining him. He probably wouldn't have survived it if they'd waited. He had
two blocked arteries.
No more meatball subs for him!
Now on to the weirdness...
Hubby took me out to this Irish Pub we have in our little mountain burg.
I'd never been there, but he'd been there for lunch a few times. We were having
a "date", so I wanted to try it.
The place was jumping and we had to wait for about 20 minutes to be
seated. The hostess put us in the bar where they had "waiting" chairs. We sat
there and people-watched.
About 4 feet away from us was a couple at one of those bar tables---you
know, the tall ones with the little round tops and bar stools? The guy went to
(presumably) the restroom and their food was served.
There was a salad and a big plate of what I later found out was shepherd's
pie (because hubby ordered it). As I idly watched, the woman took a spoon,
looked around furtively and shoveled 4 heaping spoonfuls in her mouth before
smooshing it around to make it look uneaten.
I was laughing to myself thinking, "damn, she must be so hungry she
couldn't wait for him!" Then I looked away and chatted with the Hubs for a
sec.
When I looked back, the guy had returned and was digging into his
dinner---which was the shepherd's pie!! The waitress had come back with the
woman's dinner, and it was a hamburger!!
WTF? Did you ever?
