2. I had a sex dream about my PE teacher. AHHHh

3. I need to be productive today but my body is falling apart. I want to use that as an excuse. I itchy everywhere!

Re: FFC Saturday edition

  • We went out to a local hibachi place yesterday with a group of various people.  I hate these places with a passion when it involved groups of people.  I like them when not in groups though.

    While we generally have an idea of who is showing people tend to vary on when they show up and sometimes people come who didn't say they were coming and other times people don't come who said they were coming.  This generally isn't an issue as most places deal with it gracefully.

    But never the hibachi places.  Now keep in mind, this particular one has a TON of tables in it.  So I walk in and of course I'm the first one there.  The guy asks how many.  Told him I wasn't sure.  It was a group and I wasn't the coordinator, but that it was at least 7 (ended up being 10).  Guy got very irritated and told us to go sit over in the waiting area until EVERYBODY showed up.

    I can understand them not wanting to take orders and cooking until the entire group was there, but why can't they give us a table in the back somewhere and just have us start seating at one end and keep going until we run out of table?  We ended up using about 1/2 of the two table setup, there were still other empty tables while we were there, and they didn't seat anybody else with us.

    Not a good place for a group like ours, but the group loves it, so we go there.....:(

  • That sounds stupid? Don't they understand that you are more likely to order drinks and apps if you sit down while you are waiting?  Just from a common sense stand point.

    Apparently not.  And it's a shame, I was actually thirsty....:P

  • I'm making real pizza tonight, not the carb free kind.  So I completely scheduled my calories around it today. 

    And that is sucky, Mark.  Did they have a bar area?  The hibachi place in OK that we liked had a bar so you could go sit there if you were waiting or if you just wanted to sit there.

    There was, but at that point I wasn't interested in adding any extras to the tab.

    Hope you enjoyed the pizza! :)

  • I am making lemon bars. Feeling extra lame because DH and I had a disagreement about stupid stuff.
  • I love lemon bars!  yum.  Sorry about the fight.  I am sure you guys will make up soon!
  • We are both irritable. I am hormonal and he is him.
  • Yum to all the food... And that sucks Mark. It's been a long time since we've been to a hibachi place, because there aren't any good ones around. 

    I guess mine can be that I drank way too much this weekend.

    We have a couple in the area. None of them are great, but they're passable. None of them are what I call "group friendly".

  • I meant that as in there aren't any around us at all... at least a 45 minute drive. I don't think that those places are ever truly "group friendly" though.

    Maybe not, but he could have been nicer about it.  I drove an hour and a half to get to this one.....

    It's a group of people who we all used to work together.  We get together once a month.  Given that I've moved, it's a 1-2 hour drive back depending on where dinner is, but well worth it and we make a day/evening out of it.

    See, that makes more sense. It's not a bad drive though.
