At the suggestion of my mother, I'm trying to make friends. While her initial suggestion was that I meet people for biking trips, we both agreed that the state of my bike makes such outings prohibitive.
Went to dinner on Wednesday night to a "burger place" with a bunch of the grad students. I've never been to a burger place where they didn't ask you how you wanted it cooked. Except, I suppose, McDonalds. And that should tell you something about the quality of the burger. If this is the standard, which it very well may be, the standard is very, very low. In contrast to the pathetic display of a burger was the glorious side. I ordered a "Riesencheeseburger mit wedges." Wedges, you ask? Wedges are quartered red potatoes, coated in something and deep fried. Accompanied by a dip made primarily of SOUR CREAM. These people know how to party. It almost made up for the ghastly burger. Almost, but not quite. I had to drink a few beers just to comfort myself.

i like to drink a few beers after a GOOD burger, too.
ReplyDeleteChristine, didn't know you were blogging. Just saw it tonight for the first time. The Cavs are on the verge of elimination in NBA eastern conference semi-finals. Celtics destroyed the Cavs last night. Celts are up 3-2 with series resuming Friday night in Boston. I'm sure you can catch highlights on the internet. LeBron James had a horrible game. Cavs looked abysmal. Rajon Rondo is the most amazing point guard! Don't drink too much beer.
