3 Five Dollar Tiki Tookies

Hot night at the beach. Getting late and sleepy. Hungry too. I decide to eat first, sleep next. Maybe about 4 blocks away is a drive thru Wendy's open until 1 am. I'm mobile and hungry. Off I go and get my #2 plain, size large, with Coca Cola.

Back at the hotel with my bag of food and drink, I wait for the elevator to take me to my suite along with 3 other guests waiting to get upstairs. It is the slowest elevator ever. I could walk the 8 flights of stairs instead of waiting, but did I mention I was tired and that I was carrying my bag of food and drink?

The 3 other guests have just spent quite a few hours at the Tiki Bar. An especially active few hours considering their smell and motor function skills. The girl next to me says something smells good. I say, "I get that all of the time!" Mister funny man.

One of the two other guys jumps in, "Yeah man, you smell great. So does your food. Where did you get it?" Of course my bag from WENDY'S has little WENDY'S picture all over it and a great big red WENDY'S printed on at least two sides of the WENDY'S bag. The cup is also adorned in a similar WENDY'S way. Knowing this crew was inebriated, I decide to have some fun and told them I got it delivered from Pizza Hut.

Elevator arrives and opens the doors.

The girl says, "I wish we got delivery, I'm starving. I'll give you $5 for it." I smirk and question the fact that she wants to give me five bucks for a meal I just paid $8 for, plus tip! The talking guy takes a stab to snag my bag and says, "I'll buy it!" Of course he misses, way too slow, and I taunt him a little by waving the bag at him giving him the ah ah ah!

Doors finally close and we are on our way.

I now declare, "Since all of you are hungry, why don't you each give me $5 and you can share it."

"Dude! You got a deal!" The happy three are now laughing and high-fiving each other because of their score. They give me the loot and the elevator stops at their floor. They exit, thanking me for grub while still laughing and doing a little dancing down the hall.

Elevator door closes.

I now have $15 dollars in the same hand the bag of food is in. Satisfying!
