Krystal is the South's White Castle.

They fill the same ecological niche, but I think they're better than White Castles. My dad used to sell them beef, and they used surprisingly decent meat. I really prefer Krystals to other fast-food burgers, but that's probably because I grew up on them. (I remember when a Krystal was 12 cents.) In general, though, most people think of Krystals at about midnight after they've been drinking for hours. They also have the advantage of being the only fast food I can eat in the car relatively unscathed.

Krystal are sold at Tastee Donuts. I just love that. But the theremin ad trumps it.

I just got off the phone with my mom - an incompetent dishwasher repairman flooded their kitchen and now they have to replace the floor, the cupboards, the counters and the carpet in the adjoining rooms. And they are leaving for a 6 week roadtrip on Tuesday. She's not well pleased.

IIRC, White Castles also have onion mixed into the ground meat, which I'm sure helps stretch the "beef"

I've been meaning to try Fatburger since I've been out West, but it hasn't happened, yet.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Now I want Krystals. Damn. Why doesn't Krystals spread north and open up in central Jersey?

Because books.

Now I want White Castle.

Even if we did used to call them "ratburgers." There's no better drunk food in the world, at least if you grew up in Jersey.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ION, my cat is a tail-wagging motherfucker. Prince has a dirty mind. Joan Armatrading loves it when you call her names.

I so want White Castle now. Maybe watching Jon's commercial again will be enough.

I had a job interview today so my fingers are crossed for a good outcome.

Also, I have weird floaties in my vision. But psychedelicly colorful and spinny like a bad video. Please don't tell me this is what a migraine aura is like.

AND Miss Grace is officially extubated. No more vent. Let's hope that it sticks and she stays off it.

I've noticed a ton of ads for Waitress -- it looks cute! Although weird with the off-screen tragedy.

I saw it. I liked it a lot. K, with whom I saw it, wasn't so fond of it. It reminded me of Big Fish but 100% less annoying. I loved the pie combos she made and I thought Keri Russell was charming.

Ooh, new job-ma, Kat. Also, that does sound like a migraine aura, but I more often than not didn't actually get headaches with them, so...

Yay for Grace! And for Noah's surgery going well yesterday.

On a completely different topic, CSI: What's the deal with William Peterson being back? I thought he left. Now he's back. Was he just on a break ?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yay, Miss Grace! Stay off the vent, girl! Tubeless is the way to be!

I am waiting for the following things:

  • Nails to dry (okay, I used Jet Set, so they're probably already there, but I don't feel like poking my toes to find out)
  • DVD to burn (OMG, could it BE any slower???)
  • Bev
  • 9pm

Until 10pm, I am limiting where I go on the Internets.

Unfortunately, this means I'm reading beauty blogs.

Damn, there's a lot of makeup I don't have yet out there. I want all of it. Now.
