I'm not a seafood lover, but I make an exception for Red Lobster because of those yummy, cheesy biscuits. I say, "an exception," but really, I still don't eat sea food. I have pasta. Anyway, I go along with my husband to the sea food restaurant because I LOVE those cheesy, garlicy, crispy-on-the-outside, fluffy-on-the-inside balls of buttery perfection.
It was one of those exceptional evenings and I just had to have one. It was around the time when the whole "GM buy out" was everywhere. We were sitting at our table and I just kept waiting and waiting for these biscuits to come. "Why don't we have the biscuits?..." We had our drinks...and menus. No cheesy yummies. I was getting impatient. "They must've forgotten."
Rodney kept saying, "They don't have 'em anymore."
"Whatever. Yes, they do."
"They really don't. I swear. It was on the news. The recession has caused all the restaurants to cut their budgets."
"Shut up, Rodney. You're lying." He always does that. He makes up lies to rile me up and he keeps on with them for the longest time. You can never believe a story of his. Sometimes it's the next day or a few days later when he remembers to tell me he was "kidding."
"Look around. Do you see anyone with biscuits?"
"No..."
"They don't have 'em anymore."
"Oh...my...gosh.... I will never come here again. I can't believe they would cut the one thing that everyone loves!" Flabbergasted.
and then our waitress brought them out and he thought it was so funny.
Why do I let him get me??
