Dan called me at my office after I finished teaching yesterday. Over the phone I could feel his excitement when he said, "Are you sitting now? You wouldn't believe what I did this afternoon. You'd better sit down." Then he told me he had gone to Subway and bought a 12-inch ham sandwich! Wow! He finally broke the ice by going to one of his favorite fast-food restaurants, Subway, again!
Dan, a sandwich lover, used to go to Subway for lunch. There is one in our neighborhood. He used to go there once a week. I went with him several times then stopped going because there were always a lot of people waiting in a long line, which made the tiny dining area even more cramped. Eating in there was not pleasant at all. Then Dan decided to get a carry out. Since the sandwich is cold, he didn't have to worry the food would get cold by the time he arrived home. Once in a while I would ask him to get a 6-inch Parmesan for me. He was glad to do this for me because he enjoyed eating lunch with me.
However, I don't know when he stopped going there. Knowing how much he liked to have a Subway sandwich for lunch, I tried to talk him into going to Subway again. Obviously, my encouragement wasn't convincing at all because I hated eating sandwiches. In order to cheer him up or give him a surprise, I'll get one for him once in a while because I know this type of American food can help soothe his homesickness. He would always be happy if he could have a sandwich for lunch from time to time.
Glad to know he went to Subway again. Subway, thank you for making my hubby's stomach happy! :-)
