Climbing Mexicans and No ears at Wal-Mart

After a long weekend...and Gordy having to leave for work...me and the little kids decided to drive to town - to get some items at Wal-Mart and on the way - they negotiated with me to eat at McDonald's in Wal-Mart.

After the negotiations are done, I remember that everytime I eat McDonald's - it takes about 10 minutes to not feel well. Heavy sigh.

We get to Wal-Mart and decide to eat first.

I truly think that 90% of the people we saw there...just are not normal.

First in the parking lot - a client (of course, this is why I tend to avoid Wal-Mart) asking me if I can tell her when I will be doing the class that she missed in August...proceeds to take out her phone and show me the day on her phone calendar and tells me that is when she went to the fair - instead of coming to class...so do I remember which one she missed? Are you kidding me???

Then the rest of the people...

By not normal, I mean, like each one had some part of their body or clothing that was tilted, off center or just plain missing. I swear that one guy didn't have ears...and everyone else - had huge large Dumbo ears...and very bad haircuts.

I saw 2 former clients across the aisle in the women's clothing - trying on clothing over their clothes...then they saw me - and left.

Our food came - and it was barely edible...our mountain of fries...looked just nasty. Of course the ketchup dispenser was empty - we got the little packets of ketchup and most of them were stuck together by some unidentifiable goo...ummm yeah...we moved on from the fries.

And the people - It was just scary - and I don't scare easily. I kept my purse in my lap - not on the back of my chair.

We left McDonald's - got our items...and left the building - quickly.

Memo to self - stay home Sunday nights and watch football - Wal-Mart is NOT a good idea.

We drive down Idaho - and I see that Taco Bell is CLOSED. It's 7 p.m. in the early evening. I am nosy - I drive around the block to see what the sign says: We will be closed the rest of today 10/12/8 do to equpment malfunction. 'And we will be closed most of tomro. Manangment.' Someone should call their headquarters.

On a side note; Ryan asked me today if he is German. I ask him if he knows Marty is German also. Ryan says that he is. I tell Ryan - that he has some German in him. Ryan - 'Yes and Mexico too.' I ask Ryan - 'What - why do you think you're Mexican?' Ryan - 'Because Mexican's like to climb and I like to climb too - so I'm German and Mexican.' HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA It was too cute.

So where are all those climbing Mexicans? Don't they know that MY Mexican son is muchly afraid of heights?
