DQ

Yesterday, it was such a nice day (compared to the rainy Saturday we had) Husband decided he wanted to take a Sunday-drive...he's only 30, I swear! So we packed the car with a few snacks (hello...preggo here!) and took off. We basically had the idea to get on 380 and drive East. We ended up seeing signs for historic downtown McKinney, a place I had been pestering Husband to go to with me, so we detoured down that way. It was about 12:45 and we were both starving and decided to forgo finding a cozy little place for lunch in McKinney and stopped at the DQ for a bite. I'm not always a big fan of the DQ, especially after reading some of those "Worst foods" facts that seems to pop up on Yahoo every month and always have something from DQ on there, but the thought of a blizzard was entirely too tempting for a 7 mo. preggo lady so we pulled in. This must have been the "it" place for the "over 70 and just got out of church crowd" so I'm sure all the old ladies in their Sunday-best were thinking "Sinners" as soon as we walked in. Thinking ahead to my blizzard, I sensibly ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, no fries and a small diet coke and upon arrival of the sammy, took as much of the bread off as possible while still keeping it a sandwich. As a side note, Husband ordered a hunger-buster with cheese, fries and a large coke...what the hell. I look at any of the above and my ass grows...Husband eats/drinks all and his pants are loose. Back to the point. I finish my grilled chicken sandwich and start looking over the blizzard menu to see if they have gummy bears as an option (they don't which disappoints me). I ask Husband what he is planning on getting and he looks at me a little funny and says "I'm not getting one". WHAT?!?! You meant to tell me that I settled on a rubber grilled chicken sandwich with the expectation that I was going to get a tasty blizzard afterward that would make up for the mediocre lunch and you're not getting one? I am almost in tears at this point. Husband sees the panic start and tries to calm me down, assuring me that he was kidding about the blizzard and that he is indeed getting one and was planning on getting one all along. I'm not convinced but eventually start to breath again and order our blizzards, which we ate while walking around downtown McKinney. Happy pregnant lady.
