Again Journalizing

It's just another manic Friday!! It's not a bad day after all...

So... I left work all mentally depleted, and stressed, and tired, and goofed, and mushy, and hungry!! Since the daughter has a sleep-over and the son is out at work, I wasn't in any rush to get home -- but I was starved -- so beep-beep!! outta' the way.

I thought of Kerwin's buffalo wings... but I got afraid I might start looking like a chicken since I've been eating chicken wings for the last couple of days. Hah! Then I thought I'd try out the new crab shack called "Eat At Joe's" (really now.. what kind of name is that?!) -- but to my dismay, the place was packed. I couldn't even stand by the bar!!  I was drooling with the smell of food but I was not going to wait for 2 1/2 hours for that! No way...

I decided to go to this Chinese buffet place that serves seafood (yeah... can you tell I was in a CEE-FOOD mood?!). Ah yes... they are serving crabs!! (I choose stone crabs over crab legs -- the former is easier to crack open! -- but no stone crabs today. arrghh).  Eagerly, I spotted a table to get settled. Well lo and behold!!! Before I could even sit down, the crab platter got empty!! WTF!!! These two women stacked up their plates with the crabs -- there was nothing left for the next in line!! Omilawd!! No wonder their behinds are so wide!! LoL.

OK..so... I ended up having the clams instead, and the salmon and shrimp!! I satisfied my craving (for crabs) with shrimp! Lotsa lotsa shrimp! Different kinds of shrimp. Cold shrimp, dry shrimp, fried shrimp, boiled shrimp, crispy shrimp, spicy shrimp -- even live shrimp!! Hah! I was joking! duh!

It was useless to whine over not getting the crabs after driving all the way there... so I just "pigged-out" with what's left and then amused myself watching people around me.

To my right was this family of three. The husband, the wife, and (I'm guessing) the 2-year old cute little girl.  LoL. She turned NOT cute anymore when she started wailing to get the salt shaker. She was fighting with her father LoL... she wanted to put salt on her ice-cream -- and so she did!! Ohhhh..but parents do know how to trick their children...and tricked her, the father did. He pointed at something to make her look away while he scooped up the part with the salt!! I thought that was funny the way the little scene presented itself. (If you don't think so... then go to bed!!)

To my left were a pair of "chatterboxes". Thank the heaven almighty for giving me patience, else I'd have thrown the shrimp shells at these two girls who had not stopped yippity-yapping ever since I got there.  Not only were they non-stop, they were loud too -- and lord.. they were nasty!! Ugh. Such an appetizer!!

Then came three men (hunks?? LoL.. I don't think so!!) who looked like they just came back from being fugitives.  They headed straight to the buffet table and piled up their plates with food as if there is no tomorrow. I mean "piled"... as in "stacked"!!#@&;

People of different "shapes and sizes" walked back and forth to the buffet table (btw.. I was in front of the buffet table that is why I could see what was happening).  This woman in blue must have been filling her bag with food (LOL) because I could have sworn I saw her go back to the buffet about 5 times or more!! .. with a different dish on each trip.  How d'hell could she have eaten all that if she wasn't putting them somewhere?? Now, now... I think she was trying to make it worth paying the $12.95!!! Hah! (Sorry... can't help but notice!!)

And then there was this old lady (yeah! senior citizen) who made a fuss (a stink) about her bill LoL LoL. (oohh the poor waitress!!). I heard her say the board says $12.95 and senior citizens get $2.00 off their bill.  BUT... she was complaining that her bill was $0.50 more than it should -- yada yada yada. (Now I wonder if I'm gonna be like her when I get to be her age? LMAOooo)

There's more... but I think the ones I've talked about topped them all (in terms of having something to laugh about rather than just being blah@).  It's quite entertaining to watch people. Not in a rude way as to bluntly stare, but just to observe their behavior.. and then you start to wonder what they were thinking when they did what they did.

It's  amazing how observing people's behavior can kill time and alleviate boredom -- even make you lose your appetite. LoL. Womp!! G'nite. I hope the bedtime story made you fall asleep rather than kept you awake.
