McDonalds Mayhem

This past weekend my beautiful bride and I, along with our girls, went to help some of my high school friends with a "Pimp my Room" event for their teenage daughter. It was fun and exhausting at the same time, and kind of gave us an idea of what it might be like be on "Trading Spaces".

On our way out of town, my beautiful bride wanted a drink for the road, and my oldest daughter wanted some chicken nuggets. I pull into the closest MickeyDs, hop in the drive-thru lane wait a bit. After waiting a couple of minutes, I order a Large Diet Coke, and a 6 McNuggets. We sat for another few minutes, and finally reached the first window to pay. I hand them their money, and we sit and wait a few more minutes. I make a wise crack about "I thought this was a fast food restaurant?".

After about seven minutes in line, we get to the 2nd window. The 15-year-old looking kid hands me our 42 oz. Drink, and I pass it over to my wonderful wife. I turn around to get the bag of nuggets, and the kid hands me a large drink. I pause for a second, and then just take it, and set it in the cup holder between the seats. I turn once more to get my daughters bag o' nuggets. The kid then hands me the largest McDonald's bag they have. The one with handles on top. As soon, as I get it in the window, I smile quietly to myself.

"Drive", says my partner in crime under her breath. And I quickly pull away from the window, and make my getaway. We get about 2 blocks away, and we both just start laughing. " I can't believe I did that!" I say out loud. We hop on the highway, and open our ill-gotten bounty: 2 Big Macs, 1 premium Chicken sandwich with bacon, 2 large orders of friess, a 42 oz Dr Pepper, and a large Dr. Pepper. Not a bad (value wise, not health wise) deal for $3.50

Bonnie had a Big Mac, Clyde had the chicken sandwich, and "Tiny", and Babyface Nelson had some fries.

I can only imagine the confusion that ensued inside that McDonalds after we left, only adding to obvious problems they were apparently having. And I would have loved to see the face on the 2 construction worker looking guys behind us, who had to split 6 chicken nuggets, and a diet coke for lunch.
