Yesterday, I ate at one of my favorite spots: PCH Dog on Chapman, in Orange.
When I poked my head in the little window to order, I was too ashamed to order my usual, it just seemed too much like man-food–chili cheese fries AND a sauerkraut dog–so I thought I would throw everyone off with a clever ploy, “I’ll have one chili cheese fries and one…let’s see what did he want?…um, one sauerkraut dog, oh…and just one Diet Coke, please.”
I am CERTAIN no one caught on it was all just for me…and even MORE certain no one cared.
I say OWN that sauerkraut dog and chili fries! 🙂
I have done that in another life. HINT: It’s more effective if you bite the bullet and order two drinks.
I had to read your confessions all over again, and I remember reading this one the first time and laughing sooo hard!
I do this all the time! Except, it’s always at the end of my order and it goes something like this.
“Will that be all for you today?”
“OH! Right, I also need a churro.”
As if I forgot that I was supposed to be ordering it for someone else and I didn’t see it on my list until the end.
It makes me feel better. So sad.
