Le Meilleur Hamburger

The Best Hamburger. I heard a commercial on the radio today that brought joy to my soul! Okay, maybe it was to my stomach, but still, it was good. It was a commercial announcing the return of the one, the only, the Rodeo Burger at Burger King! I grew to love this burger on it's last release, and was saddened when it was taken off the menu. Since then I've tried numerous times, to know avail, to get the "Your Way, Right Away" fast-food place to make me one, seeing as how they have hamburgers, BBQ sauce and onion rings right there...but no, they were sorry, "the Rodeo Burger is no longer available". Well, now it's back and on the dollar value menu! I'm there...in moderation of course, I can't blow my new healthy lifestyle. I don't know if anyone else out there is so excited about the revival, but I think you should be!

Today, I saw the single ugliest person I've ever seen in my life. Now, I am not one to judge people, or to condemn anyone on their looks...the whole judging a book by the cover idea...however, someone needs to tell this particular person how truly scary they are. I was shopping at Wal-Mart with the family, Dad and I were rounding an aisle with the buggy, and were talking so I wasn't paying attention to the people now facing us. I saw this really weird look come over my dad's face, and quickly turned around to see what he was seeing. That's when I saw It. I jumped and nearly screamed. Honestly, I couldn't even make this up. I refer to it as It, because I'm not sure what gender It was. I really hope it was a man, because it would have been a really terribly ugly woman. At any rate, It was wearing a hideous neon green, weirdly almost see-through dress, with black shoes. Once again, I'm not one to judge...I don't have much of a sense of fashion, and generally opt for comfort over current style, but I've never seen such an aweful sight. The face was as big and square as Frankenstein, and caked in a Oompa-Loompa shade of make-up. It had a gut-wrenching bad expression on Its face on top of everything else. I thought at first it had to be some practical joke or something, but it wasn't. After regaining my composure, and trying very hard not to laugh or gasp or something out loud to offend the person or anyone around who might have been a friend or something, I looked around to find everyone in the vacinity staring in unbelief as the person marched off down the center aisle. Everyone else was also struggling not to offend It. We finished our shopping as usual, except that every time we turned a corner I braced myself for the worst. I imagine this entry comes across as terribly cruel and merciless, but in all honesty, I still can't believe what I saw, and I hope it was some sort of social study, or hidden camera show or something, because I just can't believe anyone could be that ugly and scary looking by choice. I really had a flashback to Nightmare on Pendleton Street!

In the newspaper today, there were two Lab Tech jobs listed. I'm not entirely sure I have enough experience for one of them, but I am definitely qualified for the other. Both deal with water testing. I am going to send resumes to both of them tomorrow.

I almost went to Moe's today...we were there..at the door, when we realized two high school sports teams were in line...we didn't feel like waiting that long, or dealing with the crowded little Moe's. Some other time...

They took off The Nanny on Lifetime at 1:00 AM and replaced it with...The Golden Girls...blech. I can think of only one person that would be happy about that, and they currently don't have cable...Mom was right...life's not fair.
