National Bloggging Month!!

In celebration of national blogging month, you will be hearing from me EVERYDAY during the month of November! I wonder if I'll run out of things to say...either that or I'll be so annoying you'll quit reading :)

So today, Blake's cousin and his wife had their first baby! She texted me last night at 1:43am with "He's coming!" Little Jonah arrived at 11:30 this morning, just 8 minutes after Colt and I arrived to the waiting room. We are good luck :) He is so precious and I can't wait for he and Colt to be friends.

On another note...I LOVE mexican food! I have eaten it at least once everyday for a really long time. I just can't help myself. Last night, Blake and I decided to try this little hole in the wall mexican food place. As we were waiting to order, our friends sitting across from us in the booth said, "oh my gosh there is a roach on the wall." It was by the bathrooms and I never got to have a look at it. We ordered, got our food, looked amazing and I was in heaven enjoying my enchiladas when Blake's buddy jokingly said, "hey Abby there's a roach behind you." I laughed and said," thats totally not funny. If there was, I'd jump over this table so fast..." So we kept eating and not even 60 seconds later I saw something beside me on the wall...to my horror, there it was... a HUGE roach crawling on the wall and on to our TABLE. I think I might have said something inappropriate, screamed and pushed Blake out of my way so I could get as far away as I could! The family of 6 sitting at the table beside us happily got up and left to eat somewhere else while we stood there in awe because that just really happened. Nobody from the restaurant came out apologizing or even acknowledged that anything was wrong. They just kept defending themselves by "reassuring" us that this has never happened and they have never seen a roach in the restaurant. I'm sorry, but we saw THREE within 30 minutes...Isn't there something that says, "for every roach you see there are HUNDREDS more you don't see?!" The whole night I kept thinking there were bugs on me....ick!! Looks like we won't be going back there :)

Oh my gosh, I would have absolutely died. Totally UNACCEPTABLE!

I have TWO stories for you... both involve RODENTS not ROACHES.

One was at a REALLY nice sushi restaurant in Austin. We had literally just sat down and placed our drink orders when a table of probably 15 girls jumps up screaming. There was a mouse/rat on one of their CHAIRS!!!!! It couldn't have happened to a worse table either... imagine, 15 girls screaming, crying, flipping out.

Our waiter hurried to our table with our drinks, never mentioned the outburst and muttered something about how ridiculous those girls were. We declined our beverages and walked out. SICK!

Lastly, while eating at a Mexican Restaurant in Austin... on the patio, mind you... another RAT crawled down the wall of the patio. I screamed an awful obscenity that I am so not proud of... leapt from the table... and walked straight to the car. Kevin was mortified. I was disgusted. He kept trying to reason with me that we were OUTSIDE. Ummm, not going to cut it buddy! Rats anywhere near my food and I'm outta-there!

Eeew I hate bugs! We were at Olive Garden once and all of the sudden there was a bug on our table. They moved us and gave us a free meal! Thank goodness. Yuk!

Oh Abby, your story really grossed me out! LOL And I usually like hole in the wall kind of restraunts. Maybe I should rethink that fun?!?
AND I am excited about you blogging everyday, more blogs for me to read and avoid actually posting a blog on mine. I am such a bad blogger, sorry! ;)
