Mmm . . . Elvis Platter . . . . .
Went out to dinner with the family last night at a place called "Memphis Blues Barbecue House" - apparently we're all gonna be fiendishly busy on my actual birthday, so we figured we'd get it out of the way now.
So yeah, neat little restaurant, lots of self-serve . . . but, I think it was worth it in the end. $60 netted us the hubcab-sized "Elvis Platter" of meat: half a chicken, ribs, sausages, pulled pork, beef brisket (the last of which I dubbed the "assorted animal" part), plus the beans, coleslaw, potato salad, and cornbread. For five people, we still only finished off about 2/3rds of it. Man . . . I am SO going back there some time! I mean, it's really close to one of the bus stops on the way to/from school!
So yeah, fun restaurant. That's where I was last night. Then I came home, blew out a single candle on a cake with my nose (never tried it before - seemed like it'd be fun), and opened some presents. Not a bad night, considering how angry we all were the night before planning it all out . . . . . yeah, my family's weird that way.
Well, gonna hafta go to work this afternoon - see ya afterwards!
[EDIT:] I almost forgot the most integral part of the story!!! Okay, so our table gets called to get our food. I, naturally, get up to get it. So while I'm balancing my hands under this GIGANTIC wicker platter, this one waitress is just grinning as she watches my eyes going wide and my lips slowly mouthing three words: "holy f--king hell . . ." Hehe . . . she thought that was one of the best reactions she'd ever seen for the Elvis Platter before
