Finishing school please.

I went to the diner on Saturday with my roommates and I ordered coffee. One slight problem, no spoon.

So what I was trying to say to the waiter was..

"You don't have to bring all the silverware out yet, but could I have a spoon please?"

But what came out was...

"If you're not planning on bringing silverware, can I have a spoon please?"

The girls immediately shot me looks of disbelief and began exclaiming how rude I had just been. I realized just a milisecond too late what I was about to spew out of my mouth. You can always count on me to be "that girl".

I know the chances of that waiter ever reading this are slim to negative five million but I want to say "I'm sorry" anyway.
