I brain burped yesterday...

[mjr]

Went to this little Mediterranean restaurant yesterday for lunch.

Ordered a gyro, drink, and a side of fries.

Told the cashier I didn't need a receipt.

Ate my lunch, got back to the office, and realized a couple of hours later that I didn't actually get the fries I ordered.

Oops.

Brain burp on my part, because I didn't realize it when I got my food.

For the record, entirely my fault. I chalk up the "lost" $2 to a "brain burp".

Because I'm reasonable.

Psh, the fact that you remembered at all is impressive. I remember once I ordered a steak at this nice place that came with marinated mushrooms. I got halfway through before I realized they left off the mushrooms, at which point the waiter came over with the mushrooms in a dish apologizing profusely. If he said nothing I probably would have figured I'd actually ordered something else instead. (I am not that observant, especially when hungry.)
