I Am Elvis

Get Nick Cage on the phone, and tell him I am Elvis.

Not in a literal sense (thank God) but certainly where uppers and downers are concerned. My crazy ass work schedule has sent me spiraling into a pattern of dependence on melatonin to go to sleep and coffee or Red Bull to stay awake. Not quite Elvis' cocktail of choice to function in his last days but it's unorthodox none the less.

I am going to have to down an extra cup of coffee today as I am gearing up to go biking with my female anchor. She's quite the biker, so I decided to take a spin around town yesterday. 10 miles and two aching ass cheeks later, I am starting to realize I should start small. The distance wasn't the problem, it was the hills that got to me. And what's up with my damn seat? I have a pretty flat ass, and this is apparently a drawback as the hard, tiny seat cut into my posterior. I don't know that bikers have a wider version seat to turn to, so I am hoping my butt gets accustomed to the less than comfortable conditions.

After my bike ride yesterday, I decided to break down and stop at Wendy's for one of their free, junior Frostys. So not even worth the gas money or the time to stop there. The cups were about the size of a shot glass.

At least they were small enough to ensure there was no finger hiding inside.

Speaking of Wendy's and discarded phalanges...did you hear that they have ID'd the infamous finger?

Micah said...

Oh, it's all a hoax, anyway. I swung by there to pick up the free Frosty for my grandma. It definitely was like a shot. Guess it doesn't take much to restore goodwill.

Yeah, I know the whole thing is a hoax. But it's still a pretty gross thought. Feel bad for the company, seeing as some crazy ass biotch threatened them (or perhaps their bottom line) enough to turn to some kind of PR campaign.

But hey, I still like their mandarin chicken salad. As long as they remove any digits before they serve me.

Micah said...

That Med chicken salad is da bomb, yo. It's replaced my previous fave - the chicken BLT salad. I'm all about feta lately.

Kate The Great said...

I am a fan of feta, too. It's great with some artichoke hearts and roasted red peppers. Right now I'm going through the crumbled blue cheese. Ah, with bacon and cream cheese, there's no better dip. And add to walnuts and cranberries for a salad.

I'm getting hungry already.

No Wendy's on Saipan.

Sniff...

George, do they have ANY fast food there? And if so, does it have weirdo things like eel burgers or seaweed salad (which I actually love to eat)?
