Or maybe just Fond du Lac, WI.

Today Monkey and I went to EAA. Wow, that place is awesome! I am going to take him back when the snow is all gone and they have displays outside. If you like aviation, that is the place to go. They even had little games for the kids to play! We had a good time and probably could have spent a few more hours there but we were hungry.

We stopped at Crapplebee’s in Fond du Lac to eat because Monkey had won a free kids meal at school. We finally got seated and our waiter seemed fine. He took our order promptly and we got our food in a reasonable amount of time. Of course when we got our food, it was all wrong. Monkey ordered a kids chicken tender meal and I ordered a wrap. When it came, Monkey got an adult portioned chicken strip meal and my wrap was a salad? I told the lady that I ordered a wrap so they basically just dumped the salad into a tortilla and called it good. I’m cool with that. Monkey ended up getting his adult portion for the kid price. Then our dessert was sort of jacked up. He didn’t bring the wrong stuff, it just took him too long to bring half of my dessert and the spoons we needed to eat our dessert. Not the best service that’s for sure.

While waiting for our food, I saw something rather interesting. A lady sitting across from us was wearing fur lined Crocs with no socks? Uhm, I know they had fur lining but it is winter. In Wisconsin. Her oddities did not stop there, she also put two packets of Sweet N’ Low in her Sprite! I was totally sicked out by that. Sprite is pretty sweet all on its own and if you want that nasty artificial taste, get some diet soda. I guess she was just an odd duck.

On the way home, we had to stop and get gas. I pull up and went to insert my debit card to pay at the pump. Much to my dismay, it was covered in duct tape. Apparently they have had several drive offs and pay at the pump is not available during business hours. WTF? I had to go inside to pay and guess what? The two people in front of me were tools. Straight off the Snap-On truck! The first girl clearly could not work the credit card machine. I think she had to try 3x to make it work. The next lady could NOT figure out which pump was hers. It was quite obnoxious. It took her 5min to figure that out and then she did it. She wrote a freakin’ check to pay for her gas. Who in the hell pays by check for anything these days? Even the cashier rolled his eyes at her!

Needless to say, while in Fond  du Lac, I felt like I had walked into another dimension. It was just weird there today. I used to live there and I don’t remember it being so… different. Hmm? Maybe it was just an off day or something.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.
