Are you KIDDING me?

Don't even try to convince me
Today was rough. I won't get into it. But, what I do want to discuss is how I have been craving a cookie for like probably a week. This evening it got to be too much. It was a rough commute home from work and I HAD to have a cookie. There was no choice. I was passing a Subway, so I decided to get A cookie. When I say A cookie, I mean A cookie. One, uno. No mas. I just wanted a large, chewy, delicious chocolate chip cookie. I see a Subway, so I stop and walk in. Pass a few people eating. Get to the back of the line. The worker asks, "What can I get for you?" I say, "I would like just a cookie." She says, "Okay, honey (p.s. pet peeve, I hate being called honey by anyone, especially and particularly people serving my food. it's so condescending) just go to the front of the line. I'll be right with you." I pass everyone in line waiting for sandwiches. The honey lady comes to help me. "Can I have a chocolate chip cookie, please?" I say. I should have emphasized A cookie. She says, "Oh. Just one? Just one is 61 cents. But, if you get three, it's only $1.59." I say, "No thanks. I just want one." She says, "Really. Just one? You can save some for breakfast tomorrow morning." I repeat, "No thanks." She keeps trying, "So, you just want one?" And gives me this look like I'm crazy. How dare I just want one cookie. By this point another employer is looking over and people in line are beginning to notice. I cave. "Sure, you convinced me. I'll take three." I pull out a five dollar bill. Take my change. And the honey lady looks at me and says, "You look a little disappointed. Did you just want two?"

Hahaha that's hilarious! and quite retarded... what is wrong with people?!!
Wow...things like that happen way too often!
Was it good, though?
So did you eat all three? That's hilarious by the way! And hats off to you for getting (or planning on getting) ONE cookie. I either make a huge batch with Mariska or make Brent go get a big package, either way they are usually gone in 2 days. Probably why you are WAY thinner then me! (nah, it's all genetics)
What the huh? Crazy people work at Subway. The aromas screw with their heads.
Seriously.
For the record, I would've been sold on three the first time she offered. Good for you for being strong......for a while. :o)
What are you going to do when you're no longer a "young woman"? Will you start a new blog? You'd better register theramblingsofamiddleagedwoman.blogspot.com while you still can. I'm just saying.
That's a very valid question/point, sbg. And one that I have given thought to a little. But, you see. I'll always be young at heart. So this url will work until I'm old and gray. No worries. But if worst comes worst as I age, I'll make it www.meandmyhubbyand12children.blogspot.com.
Brittany, it actually tasted a little bit like cardboard. So, it was a major disappointment in the end.
Erika, I didn't eat all three, but I did eat a whole chocolate chip, a partial of the other one to see if it might be less cardboardy and a little bit of the oatmeal raisin. I gave the rest to my friend.
Are you serious? Just tell me when you can come and I bet no I am positive that it would work. That would be really fun! Now, don't tell me this and get my hopes up get me all excited and then you don't come!
Wait do you need mel time, or do you just need a place to stay while you run here and there and everywhere meeting up with everyone else? J/K I love to give you are hard time. Even if thats what you need all TAKE IT!
