162 calls....and nada

Why, oh why, French Laundry, do you hate me? The beloved fancy-schmancy restaurant (you may recall Dave's family gave us a fantastic gift certificate for this place for our bdays) begins taking reservations 2 months prior to the date you want to dine at the restaurant. So I put a reminder on my calendar for May 19th to call in for July 19th. The reservationists begin at 10:00am PT, so I started calling at 9:59am. 162 calls later (I'm not even kidding...the iPhone tracks it), my stalking abilities were shattered as I still couldn't get through the line.



This means I have now marked one week from today in my calendar to try again.... Never did I think I'd have to beg to spend $500+ at a restaurant!!!
