1. You make a big fat tasty burrito at a reasonable price.
Midland is now on the map with a Qdoba (to open soon…probably in 4 months). Take that Saginaw. No longer will Saginaw hold the upper hand in the middle class fast food Mexican demographic. Now you are tied!
The presidential election is really starting to take its toll on everyone. My father mentioned the other night about how crazy it would be if everyone in Congress got voted out, not necessarily for the other party, but just got voted out. I think that actually may be a good idea. Sometimes I think that we should never have people who make careers out of politics. At some point it becomes too self-sustaining. How many politicians would make the right choice on a matter if it meant they would have to quit their jobs…. honestly? Not that politicians are any different than most anyone else, they probably face those tough questions way more often than any of us. Maybe they shouldn’t have to face them their whole lives though.
I have come to understand one of my shortcomings, and maybe one of the fundamental truths to life:
If someone is doing something and it is not harming anyone (and I will add as a Christian is not sin/sinning), I need to just let them do it, and maybe try to enjoy that they enjoy doing whatever they are doing. More directly, I think sometimes what other people do for fun bothers me because I don’t like doing it. This usually means I am viewing things through my own eyes/filters instead of seeing it through other people’s eyes. I guess basically I am saying that I think I get caught up in others people’s actions too much.
So I bought ~15 new sets of guitar strings last week. I couldn’t pass up the chance to get 6 packs of D’Addario accoustic and electric strings with a free pint glass. This brings my guitar affiliated alcohol glass total to three: two pints and a scotch glass/tumbler of some kind. I don’t know what it is about drinking and playing guitar that go together so well,
oh wait, bars. Bars and taverns.
Now I guess I just need to buy some Purple Haze beer to chase a shot of Cabo Wabo Tequila and play some Hendrix while singing like Sammy Hagar. …. AND AND Play church music too!
So we made some really bad smelling stuff at work this week. I mean we actually made the bad smelling gas that comes out of you when you eat too much sauerkraut (I know I know, there is no such thing as TOO MUCH sauerkraut). The only solace to that is that everyone can just let it rip when we are working in the lab; we just blame it on the chemistry. Chemistry saves social embarrassment. Robots could not be stopped by chemical warfare though. Robots wouldn’t cave to peer pressure either. Maybe we should just tell our teenagers to act more like robots.
I guess whenever you get on the topic of robots, its probably time to call it quits for the night.
