So, we went to Tucanos. Very good food. Although the bacon wrapped turkey was dry. Every slice of whatever beef they brought was delicious. Although it seemed they came by all to often with the garlic beef. It got old quick. All you in the south country need to visit and eat there. It is well worth it. But, make sure you get a reservation. We had one and it seemed to help.
On a report on eating at Moochies Meatballs. This place was on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. We figured that since they are said to have the best Philly cheesesteak in Utah we'd give it a shot. If that's the best, I'll stick to the Arby's cheesesteak sub any day. Not good.
After we ate the plan was to go visit Dale at work. Zion's building down town. Whenever I tell someone to follow me somewhere I also give them an address so they know where to go incase they get lost. Amy told Jeremy to follow us. She didn't give them an address. So they were on the phone, and Amy was relaying every turn we made. I was beyond annoyed. Just give them an address and let them find their way there. We ended up going the the Gateway Mall and parking there, then taking trax over to the building. Once again, Jeremy got lost. He couldn't get get onto the train with the stroller fast enough. So we waited, and waited, and waited. He ended up running/jogging his way on the street instead of taking another train.
While visiting Dale, a coworker came in for some dirt. We didn't have anything. Then he asked Lily for something. So I asked Lily to tell him what Grandpa's name was. As soon as I said that Dale let out an "oh no". Lily has called him Grandpa Marvin for quite some time. After stating his name the guy gave Lily a quarter. She was quite happy.
By the time we headed home, my gut was hurting. Lunch was not settling well. That night I puked at least 12 times, and had enough diarhea to clean me out well enough to get a colonoscopy. We suffered through the day doing what shopping we needed to finish then headed to Orem to spend the night before making the trip home.
It was nice to get home and sleep in my own bed after so many nights away. My guts still hurt from the sickness, but I think it's like I pulled a muscle or something. I'll just try to take it easy this week and rest over the next long weekend.

Yikes. That's a rough weekend, Steve.
I'm glad that it was you who tested out Moochies first. I don't need another bout of food poisoning, ever.
The years of family and work experience has taught me that you never want to put a woman in charge of giving out directions. It's a rookie mistake, and I hope you learned you lesson.
Things almost always end up with some variation of, "Okay, first you head down the road to the 7-11, then you turn right and head down for a ways 'til the road curves a little and you get the the street with the big green rock with the narrow white striations and the mailbox that looks like a little doghouse on the corner, then you go left and stay on that road until you see an old wino with a checkered coat passed out on the bus bench and then you turn right and then right again and you go up the little hill and make the fourth turn left, but if you pass the building with the stylist shop and the palm reader you've gone too far, and then you...."
Naturally, at this point you're irrevocably lost and banging your head against the steering wheel and whimpering with frustration and vowing to get a cell phone with google maps installed on it, but it'll still be too late. :P
Ok, you ought to be smacked for that comment Dan. I am a very good navigator!!! I worked for a map company and am always the one in charge of the map when we go places. That's not somewhere you want to even go!!!
Steve, welcome to the world of, I aint as young as I once was and my stomach can't handle what it used to. As far as being cleaned out for a colonoscopy, I doubt it. It's not till you are squirting out pure water that your are totally clean and ready for that, believe me.
I am glad though that you were able to let Lily fill in Dale's co-worker on his name. It serves him right.
Ha ha! I knew that'd make you mad.
I love it when I'm right.
