We  got boneless, skinned, chicken. I bitched and they offered to replace our order but with "bone in" chicken this time.

I told them I just wanted a chicken leg.

They said they did not have any mild bone-in chicken legs.

I called this bluff by saying I'd take a spicy chicken leg.

The manager hesitated and admitted they were out of legs and offered me a mild thigh or leg. I took the thigh. The seasoning was "mild" and the chicken too juicy...

In the mid 1980s, we went to Popeyes near DC. There, the serving people were black and very slow but they never screwed up the order.  Today, we went to a Popeyes with white serving people, fairly fast service, who screwed up the orders.

An interesting event happened at lunch!

Kathie took me to the "La Galette French Bakery and Restaurant". I had an excellent meal.

 After finishing the meal, I decided to get an extra pastry to go. I went to the front and said "I'd like one of those (pointing at the pastry) to go."

"You want it to go?"

"Yes."

"How was the food?" This was from the manager.

"Perfect! Everything was great!  I lived in France for three years. I went to an Air Force Junior High. Every so often, my Mother would send me to <French word for pastry shop> and I would get that."

I pointed at the pastry. I noticed an old gentleman was paying close attention to what I said and had smiled at my complements. He put a very large strawberry , which was dipped in chocolate, on a plate for me. His manger handed it to me.

I was puzzled. The manager said "he wants you to have it". I beamed and thanked him. The old gentleman - obviously the chef - smiled back.

I took the strawberry back to the table and told Kathie how I had got it.

Kathie said "you bite the end off and I'll bite off the tip with all the chocoate".

I bite off the end, Kathie enjoyed the end and we each finished it off with two bites.

I am happy that I made this French Chef happy. This was a once in a lifetime event!

Anyway, I should be going back to see Dr. Mallick in June; we plan on ging to this restaurant then.

Pre-Bed Snack: two exotic beers


About the time I finished the soup, I knew I would not keep it down. I was right. I started feeling nauseated shortly after going to bed. I held off going to the toilet to vomit for almost fours hours. What came out was a dark red and made me wonder if I have a bleeding ulcer.




I went back to bed and tossed and turned for a while. I decided to go sit on the toilet but had to find a book. I could not find one where I thought I had left it in a drawer. 



Kathie asked me what I was doing. I explained I was looking for a book. She told me to turn on a light. I did and found the book I was looking for, "Lacey and His Friends", in a carry all. I sat on the toilet for a short while reading " Nation Without Walls" by David Drake.



Before I sat on the toilet to read, I felt the strong urge to vomit a second time. I refused to do so and the urge went away.




I read for a while before going back to bed. I got to sleep immediately and had trouble waking when Kathie told me it was 8 am.

Last night, I apparently vomited in my sleep as I woke up chocking and gagging. I brought up liquid which I swallowed. Then, I kept coughing up chunks of solid phlegm for upward of a half hour.

I think I drank too much "champagne" "sparkling wine" too close to going to bed...
