Spent the latter half of the week sick. From about 5:30pm on wednesday when I had a mandarin chicken salad from wendy's for dinner untill about midnight on friday/saturday, when I had a small bowl of clam chowder, I did not have anything to eat save jello (strawberry) I slept an aweful lot, but today I feel better.
Woke up at 10:30, intending to wake up at 11:30, but after as much sleep as I have had the last three days I couldn't sleep anymore. My parents were coming at 1, so I got a shower and got online. I didn't bother cleaning my room because it would have taken way too much and I was still unsure as to how well I really was. Friday I tricked myself into thinking I was well when I wasn't really.
Anyway, they got here and we hung out for a bit. Mom commented on my spending "five dollars here and five dollars there" and then proceded to give me a knife she bought from a demonstration at walmart, she bought one for $20 and got three free (I.E. $5 each) and then she gave me a jar out of a set of lidded jars (to keep stuff like flour in) that had cost $5, haha, wonder where I get that from mom?
After a bit we decided to go for lunch, I ate the first real meal since wednesday, about 2/3 of a Memphian (roast beef, turkey, and ham with provalone cheese) and a cup of potato soup from mcalisters. Then we went to get becca's and my parent's cell phones traded in and get a clip for mine. Chris came with us. Anyway, thats really rather unimportant, but after we got back and mom and dad and the twins had left, chris and I went to see "Out by the Rabbit Cage" the show WCCs theatre did in the fall and is taking to KCACTF this coming week. Excellent preformance again, and excellent show and production work of course. I foresee it winning many awards.
Afterwards we decided to get some dinner, called drew and steph and they were just getting a table at Chesterfield's, which just re-opened, so we joined them. It took about an hour to get our food, the waiter was very nice, and the manager came out and told us we would get our dinner for free because of the wait. I was very pleased as I had just ordered a $19 plate of seafood :) It was deliscious. Free food is so much better than food one pays for! Well, we decided to order dessert, which we figured would not be included in the free, and it wasn;t. We got our desserts, I had ordered a large piece of very rich looking chocolate cake, but they didn't have any more so I got the bananas foster like steph had, and it was wonderful except undercooked on the sauce so steph and I were both a little bit buzzed on rum... Well, they take a long time to get our checks to us, and then we give them our payments and they take a long time processing it. Then our waiter comes over and says the computer is down and so they can't process our payments and to enjoy the desserts on them.
So I got a $19 entre and a $5 dessert for FREE. Sure, it took 2 hours, but we had a great time in the meantime! Whoever said there's no such thing as a free meal??
Anyway, now I have done my laundry, even the sheets, and turned my mattress, and even cleaned up my room some. I am ready to sleep and go to church tomorow!
It's nice to be well again, and espically to be able to eat! I wouldnt have gotten a free meal like that otherwise!!!
