Shaggy you jerk

I am sore today. I was on my feet for most of yesterday. Taking photos, decorating, setting up tables & chairs then putting them away, uggh. I didn’t exercise yesterday, but I managed to today for 20 minutes.

It was nice to have extra days off after Good Friday and Easter. As always the time went by too fast though. I pigged out today so I don’t think I will have much for dinner tonight. Chicken & veggies for brunch, a quarter pounder a few hours later ( I had a 2 for 1 coupon.) It is still winter here even though it is technically spring. The snow melts, then it snows again causing ice ruts on the streets. My parking lot at the apartment building is a mess. I think my landlords should clean it up, then never do though. Last week there were a few times I was almost getting stuck driving through that small area, to and from work. I hope my car isn’t damaged from those ruts. Last year at this time of year it was all melted.

I live 5 minutes away from Mcdonalds walking distance. I was wearing my long black down coat and my skull skates winter hat.I was just a few steps away from my place and then a carful of young guys goes by. Windows open and one of them looking at me and saying "heh heyy." Umm yeah they must have been bored.

I get to mcdonalds and order the burgers, small fries and a rasberry mocha. They are overpriced but I had a coupon for that as well. There are a bunch of people in line to order and some waiting for their food/beverages. I see this guy who resembles Shaggy from Scoobie Doo. He sidles up to me and says "Excuse me Maam I don’t have any money can I have some to get a few pies." I am contemplating if he will get my money or not. Just then one of the employees is holding a takeout bag and saying something. I can’t hear hear because either Shaggy was talking or I was saying something to him. I ask her to repeat herself. It is my order so I fumble in my pocket and give him a bit of change. It was maybe $1.75 just so I don’t have to deal with him any longer.

I go to the seating area upstairs. If I headed home I knew the whipped cream would have evaporated. The place is full. Afew tables of people probably there for a kids birthday party. Families there with their kids, for a Saturday outing. I like kids but I don’t like crowded places. And the only table available had 4 seats. And someone else could use it more than me. So I slurped the whipped cream and had a few fries.

There was a family with relatively young parents and 2 little kids sitting at the table in front of me. Then all of a sudden Shaggy who I gave the change to goes to their table. I could tell they didn’t know him. He says to them "I bought these pies but don’t want them, do you guys want them?" They said no and I could tell they were trying not to give him a bizzare look, for randomly offering them pie. Then he says "I guess I will eat the pies" to them." I was pissed off. That effort wasn’t worth $1.75 or whatever the amount was, that I gave him though. He wandered off to sit on the other side of the area. And I listened to the chatter of the many people around me, for a few more minutes. Then I couldn’t take the chaos any longer. I was out of there.

What? He bought some pies that he didn’t want? That makes no sense!
