Okay, Grumpyernmost. Whatever you say, Buddy.Maybe so, but, you have made fun of my name many times. I haven't bothered to tell you the hours of thought and indecision that my Mother went through to find just the right name. I think she struck gold. I am Goofyernmost... Goofyernmost am I! And proud of it.
I would like those potato sticks right about now, coming up on the lunch hour. Yum
, but hey at least I got to listen to Disney music! And by the way Abby did enjoy the music.
You do realize you can let them know you prefer them not to play a family member and they will be a regular waiter/waitress.
I named my dog, Jack, after my brother, as as esteemed tribute.
@StarWarsGirl95 would like this post.
That is NOT true. The Columbus Crew Stadium was entirely paid for by two private investors.
I wanna work where you work.
The site is running slow on my P.O.S. phone. My bad. I am watching it again now.
This used to be not far from us. It now has a different name though. (new owners)Oh my! Where do you live, Jellystone Park...?!
Ha! I love your comments above, and you crack me up sometimes. SciFi is a blast!!! I ate there last year, and I got to sit in the back seat of another family's "car" and the waitress announced to them that a hitchhiker had joined them! HAHHAHA! We all had a couple of good laughs, and they rather enjoyed having me in their back seat. I also love the cheezy sci fi movies. The food wasn't great, but the atmosphere was fun.
I haven't been to Prime Time, but have read about it and seen pictures. I think it's hilarious that the wait staff take on familiar family characters like a mother, for example. It's all part of the "fun". You only go around once in life, so enjoy!
My mom's a retired teacher (35 years--fourth grade) and she was telling me any teachers not retiring this year wouldn't get the max amount of benefits because they are being drastically cut next year and the required years for retirement is being raised. So you know what is happening in our school district? 40% of the teachers schoolwide are retiring and next year will see many new faces brought into the system. At my daughter's elementary school, this is the last year for 12 teachers, the librarian and the principal.Doesn't sit well with me either, but I'm biased being a teacher. In a nearby town, the district was/is facing a 2-3million dollar deficient and the answer was reducing staff, giving teachers and other staff pay cuts, and taking away some promised retirement benefits. Many of the citizens at the board meetings were in favor of the pay cuts and taking away benefits. One of the quotes from the newspaper was "if the teachers love their jobs and the children this shouldn't be a hardship for them" I guess that person forgot that the teachers/staff still have their own families to provide for.
Here is a teaching story from my day today....
My group of 9th graders were working on a project (building a roller coaster out of paper) and I thought I would play some music. I let one of the boys pick because he was standing right next to me. Now this boy is pretty outdoorsy, a "tough" guy, but is a really good smart kid, and I thought he would pick rock or classic rock. But no he said he wanted Disney music. I was really touched, I thought maybe he picked Disney because I like Disney. Well, later he told me he picked Disney music because Abby (a girl in the class) would like it. I was crushed
Three options on the table for dinner last night - all places that are not available in our city. Five Guys, Opa, and the Pickle Barrel.
Hubby dined at PB during his weekend tournament a few weeks ago, and suggested I might like it. He had me at "ginormous shakes".
They were indeed, ginormous!

32 oz. While I absolutely, positively could have finished this beauty on my own, I would not have been able to eat a single bite of food. Ergo, we split it. He had the cherry. I had the rest.
(Honestly though, we pretty much split it 50/50.)
I was here for brekkie. I love brekkie for dinner.

I had the P.B. Big Breakfast.
Please note how we do not call it "Canadian bacon". You guys do. We call it "peameal bacon".
Irrelevant though, as I didn't have any.

Close up of the bacon. It was soooooo darn good.

Hubby went with his usual go-to meal - Caesar salad and chicken parm.

He ate every single bite. I ate less than half of mine.

Once I knew I wasn't going to make it, I ate the stuff that doesn't "travel well".
That strange looking thing on the right is what they call a latke. Not what I was expecting, but jeepers, it was good.
Not sure which of the boys will eat my leftovers, but if they skip the latke, it's mine!
We arrived about 45 minutes prior to the restaurant closing, and the person who seated us made sure we knew it. The food was good, but the service was decidedly lacklustre. I didn't feel at all bad about only leaving a $5 tip on a $40 check.
