Yesterday Matt and I went to Red Oaks Water Park. I hadn't been there in forever. It used to just be a wave pool and water slides. Now they have a lazy river where you just sort of hang out on a tube while the current takes you around; it's very relaxing. They also have a "Soak Station," which is mainly for kids and it's just a huge playground where different buttons spray water. It was really fun to be there for the day since it was really hot outside!
Afterwards we tried this restaurant in Troy called Mario's Cafe. The food is mainly Italian, and after 9pm a band started playing in the outside patio area and people actually started dancing! We were seated inside, but we could see some dancers, and it was pretty amusing to see older couples "raising the roof" to Brick House, haha. Our waitress was as dumb as a doorknob. When she came to get the bill, we asked her to put $18 on the credit card and that we'd pay for the rest with the $20 bill, which we would obviously get change back since our bill was under $38. We know this isn't the normal way to pay, but she acted like it was rocket science and said, "Um...I'll just take the credit card and you can explain the rest to me after." What were we going to say when she got back, "okay now here's the 20" ? So she left with the credit card and Matt said "baby steps...baby steps to the register." If you've seen What About Bob (or not) I thought that was hilarious. Then our waitress came back and said, "Wait, how much do you want me to put on the card?" After we told her AGAIN, and she left, Matt said "Baby steps to numbers." hahaha
To make a long story short (too late eh?) when she finally took the $20 from us she came back with 20 singles. I guess she thought by change we wanted change for a 20 in singles. Ahhh gotta love non UofMers.
