Star Wars and the Galactic Burger

*Darth Vador breathing inserted here* "Welcome to McDonald's. You are Luke. *breathing* I am your father *breathing* What can I get you? *breathing*

I laughed so hard when the drive through-associate was being Darth Vador. It brightened my night. I had just gotten off work and decided that I needed a McDonald's cheeseburger so I drove across town to the 24-hour McDonald's and was greeted with silly haliarity. I was laughing so hard that the Darth Vador breathing and voice stopped to ask me, "Ma'am, do you need a glass of water?" I laughed and said no. However, when I ordered my Extra Value meal, Darth asked me what I wanted to drink saying, "Would you like a glass of water?" I laughed again and when I went up to the first window to pay, the kid asked me if I was going to tell everyone that Darth Vador waited on me at McDonald's. I assured him I would, because who would want to miss out on that? I am very glad that this young man was finding a way to make a very drole, boring, and tedious job enjoyable. I hope that his antics do not reap him any negative repercussions. I think he's inventive and creative. I'd hate to see another system in our society beat that out of this fun-loving young man.

Someone suggested I date this young man when I retold the story. I said I would not since he looked like he just got his driver's license. Besides, I'm trying to snag a neurosurgeon and if that doesn't work, I'll just move on to someone else who is much too old for me. ;) Update on Dr. Nordic God: No word from him yet, however, I have discovered the great powers of the work email system. It will tell you the date and time that the recipient opened the email and if they forwarded it to someone or if they replied. Except it doesn't demonstrate to whom they forwarded the message. Dr NG forwarded the second email I sent him to someone and this makes me very nervous and self-conscious. I am tempted to email him and tell him to forget it. However, I am bored and this add some good excitement to life.

Usually, I am not bored. I find something to occupy, if not preoccupy my mind. Lately, I just can't seem to find something to mentally stimulate me. I'm tired of reading, tired of movies, tired of a lot of things, and I'm looking for something new. Perhaps, I am actually looking for something old; Scrabble anyone?

Oh, I want to play Scrabble. I suck at it, but it is so much fun.
