The Banh Mi Lady.

I am going to ignore the fact that I was silent for an entire summer because I can. Now I could be ornary and continue to be lazy, but some stories need to be told, and this is one of them. Let me introduce you to The Banh Mi Lady.

Banh Mi is a Vietnamese sub sandwich that is like waaay yummier than subway and like waaay cheaper. And so is this college student's choice of food 3 hours past lunch time and after a long morning at work.

So this college student took herself to The Banh Mi Lady to order herself a nice Banh Mi to take home to eat in peace. She goes to The Banh Mi Lady and asks for a "number 3" sandwich...

College Student: Number 3 please.
Banh Mi Lady: One?
College Student: No, number 3.
Banh Mi Lady: Three?
College Student: Yes, number 3.
Banh Mi Lady: OK, go to cashier, pay and collect later.

So this college student goes to the cashier pays and comes back to the counter. And to her horror, The Banh Mi Lady hands her three "number 3's". Good job, college student, you must have looked very hungry.

I guess I should be thankful that I did not order the "number 10" sandwich. Now that would have been a little too much.
