Thanksgiving

This year Thanksgiving fell on the 25th of November. In the morning, we went to brunch with my family. My brother John, my dad and Lonnie came. Brian decided he wanted to sleep instead. So stupid to ditch family for sleep (especially when it's something you do every day), but whatever! People can do what they wish. Anyway, we went to brunch at Madelines steakhouse cause they had a thanksgiving brunch. We were there for about an hourand change and then we said goodbye.

All was mostly fine and no real "arguments" except for the fact that the server was a complete idiot. Anyone who knows me knows that crappy service is a total peeve of mine. On the whole, she did mostly ok with keeping drinks refilled and what not, but when it came time for the bill....she SUCKED!!!! She made several mistakes: 1) she hands Josh the bill instead of placing in the middle of the table or in between us. 2) when I grab the bill and then hand it to her with my card, she brings it back and then hands it back to Josh. HELLO!!! What is wrong with her???????? What a stupid girl!!! Talk about being in a different century and not knowing how to be an appropriate server. I made a comment on their survey comments slip because I think it's important that servers place the bill in themiddle of the table and should ever make an assumption as to who is paying the bill. Also, you ALWAYS return it to the person who paid for it. DUH!!!

After brunch, we went home and got dinner ready. Jeanie and COby and the kids were coming over to have Thanksgiving dinner with us. It was nice and chill and not stressful at all since we all get along really well. The kids love each other and we all have a blast- which is what Thanksgiving should be.

At about 10PM, Josh and Coby went to Walmart to aquire some items we wanted on the black friday prices. I choose to not go to Walmart because I get very aggressive in situations where people aren't behaving properly. I do not approve of people grabbing stuff out of my cart of hand basket. It sets me off and I knew that especially at Walmart, I would probably get ina fight over stuff like that. I don'tdeal with people like that well. So, Josh went instead. He said it was absolutely insane and that he had no idea people would be like that. LOL!!! He said it was absolutely nuts and that people were trying to grab crap out of his basket and I guess some lady got thrown into a pallet full of stuff. I thought it was pretty funny but VERY glad I didn't go. He finally got home around 1:30AM.
