People who rock my world: Cracker Barrel Cook edition

Sometimes the world just has it in for ya. This was one of those days in my world. There was the problem with the leaky shower, which morphed into the problem with the shower spewing water all over everything WAAAAAAY too early this morning. Which morphed into the problem of having no water cause we turned it off outside. And then there was finding a plumber who could fix everything today.

I went to work in the middle of this, leaving Josh to sort that out but work kinda had it in for me today as well. We'll just leave today at "not every day goes smoothly." I know, you're probably shocked right? Anyways, after a bumpy day at work I was driving home talking to Josh. At which point Josh informed me that there was a giant hole in our drywall, and at one point during the plumbing repair the wall had actually caught on fire. This story is much funnier when Josh tells it, so ask him to sometime...but maybe not this week.

Anyway, I got home. I looked at the wall. I looked at the hole. I looked at the scorch marks. I sat on the couch while Josh talked to his mom. I might have teared up. When they hung up I suggested that after this huge long day of Fail we should just go to Cracker Barrel and have dinner. Comfort food. Josh agreed.

So we went. Josh ordered chicken and dumplings and I got peach pancakes. When my pancakes came out, they looked like this because someone in that kitchen is either bored, or an angel, or a little bit of both. Regardless, I laughed until I cried and then I just cried.

Sometimes you just need a couple karma pancakes to make it all better.

Dear anonymous Cracker Barrel Cookguy, maybe you were just goofing around, or maybe you were just bored, or maybe you are crazy. I don't care. Thank you for my pancakes...they were awesome. Also, you are awesome. That is all.
