Cringesday: Thanksgiving Edition.

It still looks like this. Sad.

Hey folks. It's that time again (Wednesday, or when I feel like "writing" a post). I think I'm the only person working today. But that's cool. I get paid a lot. Except not at all. While you are battling O'Hare, JFK, I-95 or I-35 and the like, I am all warm and cozy, basking in the glow of my computer screen, preparing myself for the big day. Which will occur tomorrow afternoon at 3pm and, yes, at the south side Steak & Ale with Mom, Dad, Dad's parents (my grandparents) and my mom's brother. My brother is working. Nice one. Assface. And yes, these grandparents - so it's sure to be a riot. Or actually cause a racially motivated riot. Either way, I get prime rib and a baked potato for Thanksgiving. Save me. Adopt me.

I'm working today too and it sucks, esp since we're getting this whole huge cold front!
And you're totally right - that S&A does still look like that. I'll pass it tomorrow on my way to my grandparent's house and think of you.
Happy Thanksgiving B!

Yikes, I didn't even realize that Steak and Ale was still around. Well have fun with that... I guess. Try to focus on the Ale. As for me, I get to be at Port Authority at 7am tomorrow morning for a bus ride to Scranton, PA (The Electric City). I plan on being drunk for the next 48 hours to cope.

I didn't realize any S&A's were still open! I remember the commercials for them when I was a kid. S&A's were like the upgrade from Bonanza. My family always went to Bonanza (or as my Grandma called it BO-Nanza).

I'm having 3 Turkey dinners this year. I'll trade you some turkey for some prime rib. Don't forget the horseradish!

OH my god, you have to go to Port Authority tomorrow? And you have to go through Jersey?

You don't have much to be thankful for this year, do you Clinton?

Clinton said...

Not a lot, no. But what can ya do? Besides drink heavily, of course.

Clinton-
You realize every comment you leave has something to do with alcohol. Who do you think you are...me?

That Tudor look really says "Central Oklahoma" to me.

I've never had Thanksgiving at a restaurant. That must cut out a lot of the stress of preparing your own food.

By the way you forgot I-66.

is that roadkill in the street in front of the Steak and Ale?

Is XXXtasy Ranch on I-35 formerly a Steak & Ale?

Big Daddy said...

OMG, that does look like road kill.

Who lives on the south side of OKC? Just wondering... cause I lived there for eighteen years, and... nevermind.
