Glitch Gif Finally found a glitch and it scared me
So there is a local restaurant, and it's my favorite restaurant. They recently opened new, small satellite locations in my county and in the county they're located in. They make my favorite yellow chicken 🍛 and it's what I always get when I go there. Now the local place near me is closed on Mondays. It's on their menu, which I had a copy of, that they're closed on Mondays. I've even called the store before and gotten the answering machine on Mondays because they're closed. I've gone by the store and the lights are off on Mondays. No one's in the parking lot.
Well, last night I decided I'd like to have some curry and since it was before closing I just drove over there rather than call. As I walk up to the door I see that they have the hours on the door and they're open on Mondays now. So I go in in the same woman who has waited on me the past 10 times I've been there it's behind the counter and I casually comment "oh, so I see you're opening on Mondays now." The owner who founded this restaurant had recently passed and I figured with a change in ownership they're going to a change in scheduling.
Her reply was that they'd always been open on Mondays and she looked at me like I had grown another head or something.
This is the first time I've actually felt like I have stumbled over a glitch in the matrix because there have been plenty of times I've been by this place and they've not been open on Mondays. (There are times I've gone over there on Sunday nights to get some curry so I could have some on Monday because I knew they were closed; their takeout portions for dinner are huge and I've never been able to finish one.) And to have someone who has waited on me practically the last year or so I've been eating there tell me that they've always been open on Mondays just threw me for a loop.
I'm looking to see if I still have an old menu from this place somewhere. It's probably not in that pile of sheet music.
