You'll hold the ranch and you'll like it!

I had an interesting experience at that one sandwich shop today.

First it was probably a 20 minute wait, with people looped around in line.  It was a pleasant wait, a couple of cute young guys (gee whiz, they do exist) and one friendly one to chat with.

Fast forward to the veggie and sauce part of the line and I say no sauce/dressing,  Sure, I ordered a bacon, chicken ranch  ... but I didn't want the ranch,

Guy behind the counter was shocked.  Really, dude?  If that's the strangest request you received, you need to go answer phone calls for a human service nonprofit agency for a month.

Then we'll compare our "strange" notes.

If I could go back

I once wrote a paper in high school that was supposed to reflect a vision for my future.  I wanted to live without regrets, and I was told that would be impossible.

Until now, I've done a good job of not missing the big things ...

Something I can't explain in the core of me says I missed out.

Let this be my proclamation to the universe... I wish I would have said yes.  Please don't let it be my only chance.

And why can't I ....

I said: ...

What I SHOULD have said:  Why do you always have to be such a dick?

Never Good Enough

He said: It's too bad you didn't do better ($500 + food donations for recent food drive)

I said: I'm happy with what we collected.

What I SHOULD have said:
1.  It's a Concert NOT a Dance
2. There's an ever-loving E in my name.
3. I'm NOT a republican!!!!! (Stop sending me propaganda and asking me to coordinate your events!)
4. Nothing is EVER good enough for you, is it?

:-)

File it under, What I SHOULD have said ...

She said: Thank you for taking my place in that three hour after work, "sit there and do nothing" thing.

I said: Not a problem.

What I SHOULD have said: "You owe me the first studio show of So You Think You Can Dance?!!"
