Go Read It Today, Saturday, April 28, 2007

Jennifer is out of the hospital and doing well!

What a great story of people who were meant to be together.

And today’s cry is courtesy of Andria.

Amalah’s smackdown this week is unusual and very moving. Check it out.

I agree — why would you assume you’d be able to bring a baby to an ultra-fancy restaurant?

Essential pictorial if you think bad boys are hawt!

Shazia is having a contest-a-thon, so go check it out and win some loot. Oh, and I’m the judge for one of the contests, so you’ll need to be extra nice to me :)

Do you like “Myth Busters”? Do you like “Ask a Ninja”? You’re welcome!

You don’t have to suffer any longer baby. It’s okay. You can fly.” What a poignant story. (Hat tip: Tabba.)


And if you want to vote for me that would be supa-cool!

    Well, I checked for the update on the Babble story. It sounds like it was pretty horrendous customer service at a Mexican restaurant in a strip mall, not all that fancy really. The problem enters in with the subject definition of “upscale.” We frequent a non-chain restaurant/pub with fine dining upstairs and pub/bar downstairs. The central difference between the pub and say, Chile’s, is that it is attached in this fancy restaurant. However, they have highchairs and have hamburgers on the menu, so we feel it is fair game. It’s clear on the two or three occasions we have brought our kids that not everyone agrees. At one point we ate on the patio – not even attached to the building, across the parking lot and right next to a river, so you are really outside with birds and squirrels and bugs. We were getting excellent service, but two older women (mother and daughter pair) at an adjacent table were extremely rude and actually asked us to shut our kids up (they were talking! out loud! oh no! And at one point the two year old fussed because he wanted to sit next to mommy and pop-pop not daddy and pop-pop). Meantime this older woman was demanding from her server french fries (which are not on the menu) and we were supposed to be embarrassed by our toddler’s behavior? Whatever. The daughter of the older woman (who was older than my mom) actually apologized to us and I thanked her. She then turned her wrath on her mother for all of us to hear “Why do I have to go places with you? You always ruin everything!” Not appetizing for the rest of us on the small patio. I’m pretty sure everyone there was happier with my two year old chirping along with the birds and pointing to the river and saying “water, water, water!”

    Err.. Can you like, limit your crying posts to one daily? Hahha, at the rate this is going on, I’ll definitely have colleagues or friends who will ask why I was crying before going to campus! LOL.
