Should I be ashamed?
One of my many mom attributes is that I carry snacks around in my bag, usually just pretzels or goldfish. This was exaggerated a little bit when I was pregnant; I carried meals, add in a couple peanut butter sandwiches and some apples. At the end of my pregnancy, I started to run out of energy to maintain the level of the larder in my purse. So on Thursdays when we went into the city for speech therapy, we ended up going to the McDonalds at the hospital, um, a lot. They have big windows to entertain my little boy with city buses, taxis, ambulances, and trucks. And it was much more navigable than the cafeteria, which is desirable when you're huge.
We hadn't been back since I had the baby, but we went this Thursday before speech. Folks, the cash register lady recognized me! "Oh, you had your baby! He is so cute! *cooing* say hello to Miss Pam!" I'm not kidding. I didn't know whether to be pleased or embarrassed.

HA.
Nah, don't be embarrassed. You clearly had good reasons.

That's why they try to make it as agreeable to your demographic as possible. And it works :) Hey, there's something deep in the human psyche that loves fried food. Once in a while won't hurt you. And you brightened the day of that employee. Take it from a previous McDonald's employee - she needed the distraction!

I'm lovin' it.

The first time Fuller tried to order his own food at the drive thru was shocking/ embarassing for me. "I want a number 3 and a drink!" Like he knew what a number 3 was. It was funny at the time, but sobering. My sister said it was a testament to how often we travel because really the only time we go to the drive thru is during travel.
