What Was She Thinking?!

They say that junk food is bad for your health. I'm finding that to be true, but it very well be bad for the health of the clown (not literally, but you know what I mean) taking my order in the drive through window. I too can literally stop his heart if I want to. And this past Saturday morning, I wanted to very badly. I was ordering breakfast for me and Robo.. We stayed up late the night before and neither of us felt like making breakfast "from scratch." So .. the convo in line at Jack in the Box goes something like this:

Me: I'll have two Supreme Croissant sandwiches, please.
Clown: What kind of jelly do you want?
Me: Jelly? There's meat on those croissants, right? (Oy.)
Clown: Yes, but some people want jelly with croissants.
Me: (sigh) No thanks. (Good god, who are these people who slather jelly all over a sandwich that has eggs, cheese, ham, mayonnaise and god knows what else on it?)
Me: Can I also have a large coffee and some milk?
Clown: Chocolate or white?
Me: (Through clenched teeth..) WHITE. MILK. PLEASE. (If I had wanted chocolate milk, I'd have ASKED FOR IT!!!)

I'm surprised I didn't have a stroke right there in the drive through. I mean, I know, it's just a minimum wage job but really, people. Get a grip. Milk is milk. It does not come in colors, except white. So there's no need to ask me to clarify it unless you are asking me if I want whole milk, skim milk or 2% milkfat milk. And one look at me and you'll know that I'm not on a Jenny Craig diet right now. Geesh. And the jelly on the breakfast sandwich? It was not meant to be eaten that way and if anyone should want to try this, they can darn well beg for the jelly at the takeout window.

So the long and short of it is this: If this is all I can find to bellyache about this week, life's been pretty damn good, huh?
