Mmmmm Mmmmm Good.

Welcome to my blog today. It's a safe place. A place free from judgement for not knowing what SOPA is or anything about the Republican candidates. A place full of judgement for not knowing who Lisa Turtle is or what song Jesse Spano sang during her speed addiction. Welcome home.

Last night I had a meeting after work for a committee I'm on. I don't spend much time doing anything past work or being with my kids so sadly I treasure meetings like this that get me out of my norm and get my brain ticking in a different direction. I got out of the meeting and immediately received a call from the hubby. An unfortunate accident had occurred - McDonald's messed up his order in the drive-thru. He got home to discover the mistake, called McDonald's and they were expecting my arrival to pick up the correct order. I must have been reeling from my hour of freedom because I didn't do my usual routine which would be to point out the fact that he should have checked his order before leaving the drive-thru and how necessary is it - principle aside - to get the order corrected. Instead I just learned what the correct order should be.

Because I know you are wondering. He got a McNugget Happy Meal for the youngest, but what he received was a Happy Meal container that only held fries and a girl's toy.

So I stopped by McDonald's, stood in line and got the correct order. Got home to find the youngest was done with dinner. Hubby and the oldest had eaten by this point, too. Hubby asked me what I was going to have for dinner.

"Looks like a McNugget Happy Meal."

To make the dinner a little more pathetic I got to eat it sitting next to the bath tub while the youngest took a bath. While eating my gourmet meal I reflected on the video someone had sent me earlier in the day regarding chicken nuggets and how they contain disturbing parts of a chicken. This kind of thing really doesn't bother me. I love hot dogs. Pig assholes and lips? Tasty. In college I took a Philosophy class which was more so about the teacher spreading her Vegan beliefs than anything to do with Philosophy, but the class was required. On the last day of class she showed a video of cows being slaughtered followed up with a vegan cake. Some in the class had to walk out of the movie because they were so nauseous from watching it. I went to McDonald's afterward and got a double cheeseburger.

I don't mean to be insensitive. I like animals just fine. I also like them with just a little pink on my plate. I have a girlfriend that only buys free range eggs after driving behind a chicken truck that had the chickens packed in the truck to such an extent she felt it was inhumane. God love her. I'm sure it was much more humane for the chickens to live freely. You know, before their unhatched babies were stolen from them for human consumption.

Whatever helps you sleep at night. All I know is if a study comes out that shows that McDonald french fries are made of adorable puppies. I'm still eating them. Those things are amazing.


UPDATE: The hubby says the original Happy Meal order actually contained a container of Sweet n Sour sauce and a girl's toy. He also pointed out that they received one straw for three drinks. Drive-thru fail.
