So, I met up with my parents to go out to eat for lunch. To be honest, I asked if we could meet up, because I didn't want to study for my two tests on Monday.. which is something I'm still procrastinating on even now.
We decide on Carrabba's because my mom has a coupon. We go in and sit down and, of course, we get this cute waiter. When it comes time to actually order food, my dad points at me and says, "Okay, ladies first." The waiter looks at me and I'm like, "mom can go first!" because I wanted to double check my order. Mom starts ordering and dad looks at me and says, "did you let mom go first because you aren't a lady?" I flip out and say no, which makes dad start laughing, which makes mom and the waiter stop talking and the waiter looks confused, which makes mom start asking why both of us are laughing. I wave it off and tell her to finish her order.
I start to say my order when I think she's done, but actually she isn't, which leads to me and dad laughing because mom is ordering something THAT complicated off the menu. I stop laughing long enough to tell him what I want, which gives dad a little bit of time to explain why I'm laughing so much to mom.
Dad starts telling the waiter what he wants and all of a sudden, my mom, being the silly dork that she is, starts obnoxiously laughing like Nelson from The Simpsons while my dad is ordering. Dad stops ordering and asks her what she's doing, and she says, "I'm laughing at you like how you and J were laughing at me!"
I begin laughing once again, because she continues to do this until my dad is done ordering. I'm covering my face and laughing to the point of tears, because this poor waiter has absolutely no idea WHAT is going on.
Whenever he would walk over to our table to give us drink refills, I would have to fight back laughing again.
That poor guy just got a glimpse into the Cespedes family life and is probably really thankful he and his family are semi-normal in comparison to our crazy awkward selves.
