round trip

the carpenter is in town. again. this time moving six tons of landscaping rocks. scratch that. seven tons of landscaping rocks. and thirteen yards of black dirt. after one of the full days of placing the rocks we sat down to dinner. a dinner we had gotten from pizza hut. the order was wrong. but didn't discover it until we got it home. to make a long story short we ordered two orders of pasta which should have came with two orders of breadsticks. we only got one order of breadsticks. it's ok. they weren't very good. anyway, we didn't feel it was worth twenty dollars which prompted this conversation. from my dad. he was saying that when he and my mom order the pasta it was x amount. and here it was not x it was x amount. and when he gets on an icecream kick it's the same way. he gets an icecream cone from the mcdonald's on eastman. when he is just about done with that cone he is almost at the south saginaw road mcdonald's. and gets a cone from the south saginaw road mcdonald's. and when he is just about done with that cone he arrives at the waldo road mcdonald's. where he gets his third and final cone. and when he is just about done with that cone he is right back home. where he started. and every single cone is a different price. yes. you read it correctly. he starts out at home and hits every mcdonald's in town. and his point wasn't that. it was to point out the same cone was a different price at each location. my point is that this proves he has too much time on his hands. and icecream.
