Sonic

Ok, for about the last 6 years or so now, we have had nonstop commercials for Sonic. What is this new and wonderful place we wondered? So, we googled it. The closest Sonic was at least 1 1/2 hours away, if not 2. We've waited. We've watched the commercials. We've periodically checked to make sure we didn't miss one, still, no Sonic. Even the kids would ask, "Mommy, if there is no Sonic here, why do they have commercials for it? I wanna go to Sonic." Because they're mean kids, very mean. But, to our wonder and amazement, Dan was going to see a friend, and on the way came across a brand new Sonic! We sampled its wondrousness last night. I'm still mad we had to wait 6 years, but it.was.good. sigh. The only sucky thing is, they're probably going to put the local good-burger drive-in spot, Swenson's, out of business 'cause they're right down the street. :0(

And now they have that 99-cent sundae! Yum. I get annoyed by the taunting Jack in the Box commercials. When I was very young, there was a Jack in the Box at the end of our street, and my mother worked there part-time. The nearest Jack in the Box is 150 miles away, in Charlotte. It is frustrating...

ooo..I'll have to try that! I saw the chili cheese Fritos wrap the other night on the commercial. I know what I'm getting next time! We don't have Jack in the Box around here. (though we've been getting commercials for those now, too.)
