Young Boys and Hangovers

Last night my sister's friend's parents who are in town visiting from Vancouver invited us to eat at one of my favourite restaurants in Toronto, called Messis. The food is great, and the service is...entertaining. The waiter is this incredibly gay guy who plays it up to amuse us, and get better tips I'm sure. Anyway, my sister's friend's mom was really enjoying that, and playing along. Eventually, it was time for coffee, and he brought the cream and milk to the table saying 'Milk in tall, cream in short....milk in tall, cream in short' so that we wouldn't forget. Our friend, being in a playful mood and having had several drinks by this time (beginning of course with some pre-drinks at our house) responded with 'Milk in tall, cream in short, ta ta ta, ta ta ta'..and although this in itself was not that funny, she continued with

'That's what happens when you spend all afternoon playing with young boys'.....

....HAHAHAHA, it was made especially funny because the gay waiter was still completely within earshot, and had a scandalized look and comment!

She later went on to explain that she had been playing with some nephews or something who are both less than two years old, and that singing them little songs keeps them entertained. Anyway, talk about saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.

What with all the scotch, red wine, and ENORMOUS amounts of food, I have unfortunately fallen victim to a food and wine hangover. Please note, these have nothing to do with playing with young boys.
