Our first night in Utah. We've been traveling, so decide we are tired and want rum and cokes. Lithus googles "bars" and we head to the grill next to the highway. We were barely three steps in when I realize we have made a mistake. Lithus and I are talking about it when a sweet, young hostess comes over, gets reallyclosetous and speaks.
Sweet Young Hostess: "Hi, welcome to the grill next to the highway. Two?"
Lithus: "Do you have a cocktail lounge here?"
SYH: "Do ... we have ... a what?"
Lithus: "Do you have a cocktail lounge here?"
SYH: "Do we have a cocktail lounger?"
Lithus: "No, a cocktail lounge. Here. On site."
SYH: "A cocktail lounger... wellll...there's a bar."
Lithus: "Yes. Excellent. Then yes, two please..."
SYH: "But not here. There's a bar in town."
Lithus: "But not here."
SYH: "Well, it's here. Just not here."
Who's on first?
When I was six, my grandparents gave me a suitcase (blue with big, hot pink flowers). I kept it packed and stored in the closet, just in case there was an adventure and I needed to be ready. It took another 34 years, but I'm finally on the adventure. A published author, married to a helicopter pilot, life is fun, crazy, adventurous, challenging ~ but never dull.
