I feel so stupid! I had a long day today. We were going to visit my granny but had to wait for my brother a whole freaking hour while he showers and does whatever in the bathroom. Before that, we were convincing him to go because granny's in critical condition.
Anyways after the visit, my brother wanted us to order dinner from a fast food restaurant. I was against it but my parents went along with his suggestion. So we stopped by a Jack in the Box and I asked him what he wanted. He said "no mayo and no cheese" and I was like, "What??" And he said "are you stupid? I said no mayo and no cheese." So I said "I'm asking you what meal you want, as in do you want an ultimate cheeseburger..." but he woudn't reply to that. So I got frustrated. We went to the drive-thru. I didn't take a good look at the menu because the car in front was done so we had to pull up. I was like, "I want to get this over with" so I spoke into the intercom, but lo and behold! No one was speaking on the other end! So I spoke into it again but still nothing. I waited for what seemed like a minute or so, and there was a car behind us. I assumed the intercom wasn't functioning for some reason and didn't want to hold up the line so we pulled out of the drive thru.
Minutes later, my dad and I went into the restaurant to order. FYI I was very embarassed about what happened earlier so I grew very frustrated. I just want to get this done and over with. So I quickly went up the counter and ordered 3 ultimate cheeseburger meals and 1 chicken sandwich. I had no idea why the h*ll I ordered the ultimate cheeseburgers, but that was a huge mistake! When we got home, I looked at the ultimate cheeseburger and it had 2 nasty patties with cheese and mayo and no veggies! Yuck! I'm on a diet but it felt like I'm eating a tub of lard. I also had to gulp down some medium fries. Plus I botched my brother's order and got berated. Way to go me -:kickingmyself:
Mistake #2: The server asked me "small, medium, or large for the drink/fries", and guess what? I said medium! WTF was I thinking?! :thumbdown: I think I was nervous the whole time that i was up there at the counter, plus the incident earlier with the intercom made me feel very embarassed. Frustration took over and I was insane for a good few minutes.
Should i have thrown away that ultimate cheeseburger and fries and just eat something healthier? If I did that, I'd feel bad because growing up, I've been taught to not waste food. Gulping down that ultimate cheeseburger was a nightmare. Tomorrow I'm definitely working out.
Silver lining: all yuckiness aside, the visit at the hospital went pretty well, for the most part. I forced myself to smile when I greeted some relatives and talked to granny several times. When we got there, my mom became the most talkative person in the room, as usual. She has a neverending list of things to tell people. My brother, me, and to some extent my dad stayed quiet while she blabbed on and on. Sometimes I'm amazed how great of an orator my mom is, even though some of the things she said doesn't make sense. I forced myself to listen, laugh, and nod when appropriate. I also managed to jump into the conversation once when my uncle talked about his kid in high school. Plus, instead of standing there like an unmoving rock, I shifted body positions, yay! Believe me, in the past I was too scared to move or even drink water in the presence of other people. But I still had trouble with eye contact, especially with my aunt. Like when my mom was talking, both me and my aunt were looking at her but in our peripheral vision, we notice each other so one of us had to avert our gaze.
