I fully expected an adventure story when my family returned from KFC last night and of course they did not disappoint. It seems that KFC closes early on Sunday nights or at least they did yesterday when Clark W Grizwald arrived, the store was dark without a bucket of chicken in sight. The kids all got a kick of watching my darling husband's stress level rise, in his quest for chicken . They decided to try Taco Bell again, Ryan and Maggie could get pizza and Dave and Erin could get taco's.(Lauren most likely would say that she wasn't eating fast food because it is soooooo unhealthy and then she will just steal your food when you get home, instead of ordering her own) They arrived at Taco Bell and of course were not going to attempt the drive thru, (especially in dad's fragile emotional state after the chicken quest was coming up a bust.) Dave got to the door and there was a sign taped to the door that said "We're sorry, we are temporarily out of Pizza Hut pizza's!" Dave thought, you have got to be kidding me, he went to open the door and it was locked. Not only are they out of pizza, now he would have to go through the drive thru. He decided that Taco Bell was not going to be for him, he couldn't handle all of this fast food stress. Moving on down the road, they decided to hit McDonald's, Dave was ready to throw in the towel but Lauren was driving so he didn't have much choice. Lauren pulled in to the drive thru and ordered, Dave wanted a number 3 large with a coke. They pulled around and the kid in the window gave them their food. Dave asked for his soda and the kid said "Ummm you didn't order a soda." I guess he forgot that value meals came with a drink. He appeared baffled and asked Lauren if she could please pull forward and he would run the large Coke out to them as soon as it was ready. Dave couldn't understand why they had to pull forward for a Coke when this kid was standing inches away from the cups, straws, ice and soda. Dave told Lauren to just leave, he couldn't handle the pressure. Lauren refused, the kids were enjoying watching Daddy crumble. Finally after at least five minutes of waiting for Dave's soda, Erin went inside and asked for it and the kid said "Oh I'm sorry I forgot all about it." Erin got back in the car and Ryan asked if Ashton Kutcher was inside. Surely they were being punked!!!
