Insanity is a dish best served microwaved

I don’t know what happened to good, cheap fast food.  Cameron, my little brother, called and asked if we could go to dinner.  I asked him where he wanted to go and he mentioned Chico Burger.  I thought, what the heck, I’ve been in the mood for a burger for a while.  So, I picked Cameron up and headed over for a sin burger.  When we got there and ordered, I paid nine bucks for a combo meal.  WTF?  I believe if you paid over $5 for a combo meal of anything involving a hamburger, it become a gourmet burger.  Hence, it’s not longer a sin burger because all the grease has been sucked up by dollar bills.

I spent most of the day trying to catch up on all the paperwork I’ve fallen behind from last week.  I was successful up to a point.  Then, I put my work aside to do my afternoon workout routine.  After a trip to Paradise (literally, it’s a town), I came back to my office.  I was running a bit late and I turboed through my weights to meet my running partner at 4p at the park. 

So after I rush through and through some miracle I finish my weights in 20 minutes–cutting ten minutes off my normal time.  I fly back home and rush to the park only to find my running partner not there.  Of course.  Why would I expect her there?  So I wait… and wait… and wait.  Finally, she shows up.  Today, it wasn’t a huge deal because I didn’t really have much left to do this evening.  However, I think I lost 30 minutes of productive work time and the 20 minutes waiting.  So combined, I have to make up an hour of work tomorrow.   I don’t know why I do it, but most of my friends are so time-tarded.  Me?  I’m not late; I’m not early.  I’m on time.  I don’t expect others to be so freakish about being on time, but 5 minutes is respectable.

Tomorrow will be spent on getting ready for our CADA conference and all my paperwork that I missed today.  I will also make it a personal goal to not lose too much money gambling in Reno.  I really need to cut back the gambling to a respectable manner… but darn it, it’s sooo fun!
