it's been a long week and a short weekend. i ended up heading out to the girl's parents' house to spend the weekend with her. this thing with her living out of town is starting to get to me. either way, i got to spend some good time with her and had a couple of good homecooked meals. i never realized how much i like turkey burgers. add a little a1 sauce and it's heaven on a bun.

now i'm back at home. back at home means back at work. and that's where the grey weight of monotony weighs in. i wouldn't mind my job so much if i didn't have to come here every day…

last night i got hungry, and since it was really late (3am) i was limited in my choices of what to go get to eat. since i'm sick and tired of taco bell, i opted for steak 'n' shake. well…this didn't turn out to be such a great idea. i pull up to the little speaker thing and notice that they don't have an overhang over the ordering station. since it was pouring down rain, this ended up being a pretty bad thing. i kept trying to order a turkey melt and the girl taking my order kept insisting that i ordered a turkey club. at some point she actually had me ordering a turkey melt and a turkey club. splendid. after about the fourth repeat of my order i stopped and asked her…

"you do realize that it's pouring down rain out here and i am getting incredibly wet, right?"

i repeated my order one last time and was surprised as shit when i got to the window and she actually got it right. i pulled the cherry off my shake and threw it on the ground right outside the drive-thru window in a weak display of defiance.

i saw once upon a time in mexico a couple of weeks ago. it was pretty good.

the new hey mercedes record is good, as well.

other than that? i got nothin'.
