that reminds me of lunch the other day. after picking up xshub and xsboy at the airport we went for lunch to maggianos in Denver. it is an italian chain where you can order family style and they bring the food in courses, well we were done with the salads, they had cleared the table and we are sitting there. i was ok for awhile then i started to get irked and i asked a passing waiter where our waitress was. i mean the lunch rush was long gone and we have a short amount of time to spend in denver and we are sitting in the damn restaurant. so she comes out and instead of apologizing and saying the food would be right out, she gives me this pert look like, yes? can i help you? and i said, we have had a fair amount of DOWNTIME here, can we STEP THINGS UP a little bit? we are only here for the afternoon and didn't intend to spend the day having lunch. After she went to check on the food, the kids were laughing uproariously at me saying Mommy that was so SNOTTY! xshub was pretending not to know me. i was perfectly nice to her after that and she did speed things up. now the kids will repeatedly say the things i was saying. Can we step things up a little bit here? so yeah, i guess that same sentiment applies in the manner you suggested : )
