the large child

Today was a huge day for Bob, as his longtime desire to dine at a Big Boy was quelled with a saucy Big Boy burger. I had one, too. The cook at BB really likes to apply special Big Boy sauce to burgers. The side salad I ordered left much to be desire--the lettuce was a little brown and soggy around the edges, and the ranch dressing was very gloppy. But Bob was very happy to eat at a Big Boy, and for that, I am happy, too.

We also did battle with the local Best Buy, wherein I snubbed unnamed line mores and took a place in line while Bob and my sis-in-law selected products for purchase. Then they came and got immediate check-out service. Some local shoppers were miffed.

Tomorrow is the truly exciting day of southern Mittenland tourism: Air Zoo AND Kellogg's Cereal City! Flight simulators and anti-masturbation tracts, oh my! Seriously, I am really hoping that they make mention of Dr. Kellogg's health reformer quackery (cold showers, preventing masturbation, calisthenics out in the cold!) alongside the stories of their adorable spokesanimals like Tony the Tiger and Dig'Em. I plan to get a retired Sugar Smacks mascot Smaxy the Seal plush toy. Smaxy, I never knew ye, but I will add you to my family of stuffed friends because you're old and no one my age remembers you.
