It's Friday, I'm in Love

actually, more like toleration in this case. Christmas blows on a lot of levels. Last night, I had settled in for 30 Rock and a rerun of The Office, not to mention a new Scrubs (and yes, I realize I am the only person who likes and watches this show) when Mother Bee-Spot called in a panic. Yesterday morning, she awoke me to let me know I needed to be home that night to help her wrap gifts. I asked her which gifts she had recently purchased, because the shopping I had done included only gift cards. Five of them. But it was the gift cards she was stressing over. Wrapping effing gift cards. I ignored her. Back to the emergency phone call. She wants me to go to Wal-Mart (during my shows!) to pick up more ribbon so she can finish her wrapping effort. WHAT? Naturally, Shain and I head to Super Target at 10pm. Naturally, afterward, we head to Sonic where Shain orders the following: Sonic Blast with Butterfinger, no whipped cream; small vanilla Coke; five piece Cheesecake Bites (read fried cheesecake cubes). That's right. He also suggested that if anyone ever tries to assault me, all I need to do is put on a headband a la our super rere video and it will thwart any attackers. You're the best Shain. Really. I'll see you tonight. In the meantime, here's a little number that always helps me tolerate this terrible time of year. This is for you, far-flung Oklahomans. Sing it.

Dude, first you talk about Taco Cabana, and now it's Sonic. Why must you taunt me with regional fast food chains that I can't have? WHY ARE YOU SO CRUEL???

apparently oklahoma is still stuck in the '50s. very awesome. i'm gonna have that jingle running through my head all day now.

c - schlotzky's. that do anything for you? do they have braums in TX? chick - fil - fucking - a.

d- yeah, we are. just noticing that? and it can't be helped. it's the best jingle in the world!

Clinton said...

You're just mean. Schlotzkys are the bomb, and Braums makes the best everything (despite the fact that all their employees are either elderly or retarded). There was a Braums right by my high school and it was a major lunch-period desitnation.

Chick-Fil-A does nothing for me, though. So there!

ok ok, first, where were you last night when your mom called? i mean, why couldn't she just walk into the living room to yell at you?

second, who ate those cheesecake bites? and how quickly? let's just say it wasn't me. also, did i eat the ice cream? not so much. i did enjoy the coke.

third, how could you leave out those mittens you bought? or did you already leave them at someone's house?

fourth, the headband was only a defense if someone tried to sexually assault you.

Does Shain's diet consist mostly of ice cream and/or ice cream-related products?

These Friday, I'm In Love posts are usually a little more, I don't know, uplifting. All this Sonic and Braum's talk is giving me Kansas flashbacks. I gotta get back there sometime. For a brief visit, I mean.

Mr. Shain said...

yeah, your point?

Cici's Pizza? $2.99 all you can eat and drink. Pizza, salad and dessert.

Yes, New Yorkers. You heard me.
