I left the office for lunch today having no idea where I'd go. A sandwich sounded good. But I didn't want Subway. Nothing against them...just not in the mood.
Ahhh...la Madeleine. Yes. I'll go there.
On the way I begin a game of I Spy...
Three ladies with a cleaning service walking to lunch. One is about 1/2 a block ahead of the other two and why? Because the chick is power walking AND pumping iron. Though only with one arm. I silently hope she is counting the number of reps she's doing so she doesn't end up lopsided. That wouldn't be pretty. And I'm sure she'd be teased.
A 70+ year old woman with better highlights than me. That's it...I mentally start putting money aside for a little T-Time in the near future. Seriously this is not fair. Not that she shouldn't look good. Just that she shouldn't look BETTER. hahaha
A mom, with her teenage daughters, sporting the new fashion I will never understand or wear: A racerback tank top with a regular bra under it so the bra straps show. Purposely. I don't get this. I don't care how trendy or whatever it's become...it looks tacky to me. No wait. It IS tacky. Quit trying to be a teenager! It's like the moms who wear Pink by VS. Hello?!
A tree-trimmer guy randomly walking down the street just cutting branches on the trees he happens by. No rhyme or reason to it. Just cutting them with his chainsaw while walking. He doesn't miss stride or anything. Branches falling on the ground left and right. Okayyyy.....I don't think that's the way you're supposed to do it, but it's Friday so whatever.
Finally, I'm reminded why I love la Madeleine so much. Notwithstanding the fact they have awesome food, the customer service is always good. "Don't go yet Miss Terri," says the manager behind the counter who took my to-go order. "Anyone with a contagious laugh and smile such as yours deserves a treat." As he puts complimentary chocolate chunk cookie in my bag. Don't need that at ALL but thank you!
Back to work...
