Mishaps of The Day...Starring myself and Lindsay Bartlette Allen

Lindsay-"So, you wanna go to Brighton Beach?"
Me-"Sure!"
[TIME- 11:30AM]
So we went to the grocery store across the street (AKA the Food Emporium) to get snacks.
...
Arrived at Lexington Avenue/59th Street station.
[TIME- 12:00PM]
....
.....
....
N train pulls away as we walk up.
R train arrives.
R train arrives.
Still no Q.
[TIME- 12:25PM]
Lindsay-"What the f@*% is happening? Is the Q running?"
...
..
R train arrives.
We get on.
...
Get off at Herald Square, still waiting for the Q.
We contemplate trying to catch the B train in another part of the station...
Q train arrives.
[TIME- 12:40PM]
In unison-"Oh thank GOD"
1 hour train ride...
Arrive at Brighton Beach subway stop.
[TIME- 1:35PM]
Lindsay suggests we get food at one of the places on the beach, so we walk there.
We select the only reasonably priced food place and walk up to order.
Lindsay-"I'll have the chicken fingers"
Guy behind the counter-"No food. Next week!" (walks away)
In unison-"WTF?"

SO...we walked all the way back to right beside the subway station and settled for something called Palace Fried Chicken. Pretty good actually-horrifying bathrooms.
*Fabulous beach time and much people-watching going on*
ON the walk back to the train, we decide to get a drink. Took us 10 minutes AT LEAST to find a convenient store that actually had drinks.......
Just missed the Q train.
1 hour train ride...
Announcer-"This is 57th Street, 7th Avenue. This is the last stop on this train..."
UGH.
Walk up stairs. Walk 10 feet. Walk down stairs. Wait for another downtown local train.
FINALLY home:)
