Curious George Pt 1

Pikeville, KY


Went to lunch at "Joyce's Diner" a smoke-filled bar that didn't have prices on the stick letter menu board.

Our waitress/cook/hostess/bartender was lovely, lunch not so much. But oh well, our other choices were KFC and "Champs" sports bar (where we went yesterday).

As we stood to pay our bill, I asked the woman,

Me: "So, are you Joyce?"

Her: "No, I'm her daughter... Joyce isn't here anymore"

(Moment of awful silence as I figure out what to say next)

Her: "She had to run to the store. I'm stuck here until 4."
