OMG this talk of milkshakes has me drooling! Damn you all!!!! I might have to run to the mall and Johnny Rockets at lunch time.

On Monday night, DH and I ran out to get milkshakes at 9pm. We couldn''t help ourselves! Luckily we have a great dairy store just 5 minutes away.

Unfortunately, I paid for those milkshakes all night long - DH is lactose intolerant

Elro! Otto keeps getting compliments today. I''ve had two people stop by my desk to ask questions about His Royal Highness, Prince Otto the Adorable. (His picture is my wallpaper.)

That is awesome! I just told Otto and he *almost* looked excited.

Otto will take over the world!


VC, I''ve never had a McD''s shake. Is the Shamrock one flavored with mint? Or is it just green in color?

 

[elrohwen]

Oh, and Princess, you can tell people that his full name is Otto the Leviathan (or Otto T. Leviathan).

DH really really wanted to name him Leviathan (after a favorite beer) and I was kind of on board with calling him Levi, but I''m not sad we went with a different name

DH still calls him Otto T. Leviathan all the time though.

That's awesome!! I've been promising DH that we'll go to the Big East tournament - glad we didn't go this year. Georgetown beat the Cuse in the first game!

What big teams do you get to watch in Vegas? I'm not sure who's playing out there.

DH is terrified the Cuse will lose on Friday to Vermont. I keep pointing out that Vermont is a 16 seed - there's no way the Cuse will lose. But there's the curse of Vermont or something and he's worried. He even said he'd cancel our party on Saturday if Syracuse loses

MORNING SUNSHINES!


can''t stay to chat, but wanted to say hello and i miss you all!!

 

[elrohwen]

Hi JCar!

 

[ladypirate]

Morning ladies!

I have a slight residual sore throat from my cold last week. I think it''s because as soon as I lie down I can''t breath through my nose and so I MOUTH BREATH all night. Gross.

At least my cats still love me.

 

[elrohwen]

Hi LP. Good thing animals love a mouth breather!

Wife - My throat is still hurting in the morning from my flu/cough/cold b.s. I had a few weeks ago. Plus I cough at night still. It''s ridiculous! J insists on sleeping w/ our bedroom window open so I doubt that helps!

VC - Shamrock milkshake?

 

[vc10um]

How have you never had Shamrock Shakes before?!!??! They''re green AND minty deliciousness!

McD''s only has them out from like the end of February through March for St. Patty''s Day.

PS: Helloooooo, PNWers!

[TooPatient]

McD''s used to have a chocolate banana milkshake. It has been a LOOooong time since I went there for anything but I used to love their milkshakes. I''d stop on the way home from ITT at night after my classes. It was so smooth and yummy.

I rarely eat anything from McD''s. Breakfast, milkshakes, Double cheeseburgers, and chicken nuggets being the exceptions.

I just hate everything about McD's, especially the way it smells. I do like a few other fast food chains, but I can't stand McD's for some reason. The only thing I'll touch are the chicken finger things, but that's only when I'm forced to go there (which is about once every 4 years)

Quarter pounder........dude I''m drooling all over myself. Their hot fudge sundays cannot be beat. They''re just perfection in a little plastic cup!

 

[ladypirate]

I''m with you Elro--not a McD''s fan. I think the only fast food place I really like is chipotle.

The only places I''ll eat are Wendy''s, Taco Bell, or 5 Guys Burgers. Chipotle is ok too - I don''t complain if someone wants to go there, but I won''t usually suggest it.

I think Burger King is as gross as McD''s. I would say it''s because my parents only took me to Wendy''s growing up, but I think we also went to McD''s a few times and I never liked it even as a little kid.

It''s so funny you say that because I don''t really like any other fast food (hahaha I typed fat food first) besides McD because that''s the only place we went to as kids.

OK, I totally forgot about Taco Bell. I love that place. Whenever Kris and I are in a huge hurry, we will go there and order a bunch of bean burritos.

I also like In and Out burger, but they don''t have those up here.
