April Fool's Day 2007

Breakfast: Breakfast: We'd planned on having breakfast at the hotel we were staying in. After all, we had a decent breakfast the morning before. The breakfast area was crammed with people; there were more folks standing that there were seated. Some seats were empty since it was impossible for anyone to get into them...

They were out of S.O.S. and didn't have waffles as we had expected.

The room was loaded -ney! crammed with the "Square Dancers" who had occupied the "Conference Room" in the No Smoking wing until 2 am and had:

1. Smoked! In the no smoking wing...
   
2. Played their music very loudly well after 10 pm!
   
3. danced loudly in spite of being asked to at least quit smoking and cut the noise level!
   

I guess smokers just can't help being assholes!

Actual Breakfast: We went to McDonald's and got take out: I got the scrambled egg and sausage and potatoe thingie breakfast and a "medium coffee".

Lunch: At Red Lobster: Oven baked "blackened" catfish, baked potatoe, salad and two glasses of "Diet Pepsi". Initially, they brought out fried catfish and when I commented the waitress told me to "eat the fish and I'll bring out the blackened catfish". I did so and didn't complain even if the "blacked catfish" was about half raw...

For desert, I had chocolate cake, vanilla ice creamme and the whole had dark chocolate drizzled on it...

OK, so this will fuck up my A1C in less than two months but this is the first fish I've had at a restaurant in many months and I can't help it when I'm dining out and get the chance to eat some really fine chocolate cake...

It reminds me too much of visiting my Maternal Grandparents on special occasions...

Dinner: I bar-b-qued steak that had been basting in my Father's Marinade for three (3!) days! and potatoe salad and a can of D.P.

Also, I had a gin-and-tonic (or two) for desert...
