This morning's craziness
Megan: Can you make the oatmeal?
Me: of course!
Megan: It's a half a cup of oatmeal, a cup and a half of milk, then put it into the microwave at 70% power for 5 minutes and 38 seconds. Not 37, not 39, 38.
Me: Sure thing hun...
Megan: What, it's very persnickety oatmeal.
And here's an oldie but a goodie
McDonald's intercom woman: Hi, can I interest you in one of our new Angus burgers?
Me: No thanks, we're going to need a minute.
Intercom woman: Ok, take your time and tell me when you're ready.
Me: What do you want Megan?
Megan: I don't know, what are you getting?
Me: Chocolate dipped cone. The one's you don't like.
Megan: Hmmmm, I think I want a butter pecan tillamook waffle cone. But what flavors do they have?
Me: You know what flavors they have, do you really want me to ask?
Megan: Yes please.
Me: Ugh...really? I don't want to.
Megan: Just do it.
Me: You're just going to get confused and end up ordering something you don't like.
Megan: Just do it. I want to hear the flavors.
Me: Fine, (to intercom) can you tell me what flavors of ice cream they have?
Intercom woman: (by this point it's been a good 5 minutes and she's irritated) Well soft serve we have vanilla or chocolate dipped vanilla or we have the tillamook flavors.
Me: (looking at Megan with contempt as I ask) What flavors do you have in the tillamook?
Intercom woman: Uhhhhh....Chocolate, ummmm, vanilla, butterpecan, strawberry....uhhh...chocolate.....ummmm....strawberry, and uhhhh blackberry.
Me: Thanks, (to Megan) NOW WHAT DO YOU WANT!?!
Megan: Just a plain vanilla cone.
Me: (to intercom) Ok, we'll have a chocolate dipped cone and a va...
Megan: I want mine dipped to.
Me: (to intercom) ughh....make that 2 chocolate dipped cones.
Intercom woman: Will that be ALL?
Me: Ya
Intercom: Pull up to the second window.
5 minutes later
Megan: I don't know why I ordered the chocolate, I hate it. (as she peels it off and throws it in the bushes)
Me: I don't know either.
Megan: Well you knew I didn't like it, why'd you let me order it?
Me: Jesus Megan, we're never driving through anywhere ever again. Good god you frustrate me.
Megan: All in a days work
