We're Cheap

I have a lot to say I just know how to put it down on paper, or er... on screen... I feel like our lives are incredibly boring and exciting at the same time. It seems like a lot of waiting in between bursts of holy crapness. So until I figure out what I want to truly say I'll tell you about my, our, day today.

We went to bed pretty early last night. Usually we don't hit the ol' sack til 2am but for some reason the bed was calling at us shortly after 11pm. I'll say we slept pretty hardcore until 5am when The Lover and I BOTH woke up for a pee break, tossed for an hour, and decided it's time to get up.

We headed to Shoney's for their freaking amazing breakfast bar. Plates upon plates of scrambled egg, has browns, sausage links, bacon, you name it they've got it. And to mention, it was a heck of a lot cheaper than the awful food we ate the day before.

In this dying mall about a mile away they have this restaurant called Picadilly's that is AWLAYS busy. With really old people. We figured that it was due to the young folks working during daylight hours but soon realized it was because they don't have tastebuds. The advertisment listed a full-size meal for $4.99. That's pretty good for the amount of food pictured on those plates. So we go through an assembly line of food and gather random items thinking we are raking it in. That is until the lady rings us up for $28 dollars. WHAT? Flabbergasted The Lover pays. We sit down to eat but the food SUCKS so bad that I literally wanted to spit the chewed up gunk back onto the plate. It was a bad experience and a lesson learned.

So we made up for it with Shoney's this morning. Good ol Shoney's didn't let us down. Even on our way out The Lover managed to win a toy out of the claw machine on the first try. But then he tried two more times for a Taz only to fail making the pooch's new purple dinosaur chew toy $1.50. We're cheap. Sort of...
