Victoria Said... Fast Food

HEY remember to read Troy and Heather's blog about fast food first or this will make much less sense.

So, now for my thoughts:


Okay. I'm glad Troy and Heather married each other because I cannot think of anyone else in the whole universe, even aliens and people that aren't real like centaurs and Dracula, that likes Arby's.
That said, I can understand why Troy like Burger King. I hate mayonnaise. When people put it on my food, it makes me want to commit crimes.

So, I am willing to forgo delicious McDonalds' fries for the less delicious fries at Burger King simply because I won't have to return my chicken sandwich nine times because they keep screwing it up. But Heather is right, McDonalds' fries are superior.
That said... Has everyone forgotten Taco Bell? I know that their food is disgusting approximately eleven seconds after you swallow it. But boy, those eleven seconds are pretty good. Soft tacos are better than hard tacos. I also like KFC. I think however, that the fast food prize might have to go to Wendy's.
I prefer Wendy's because I like chicken sandwiches and I think they have done a pretty good job with them. I also like their frosties although I can only eat like a half of one because there are like seventy billion grams of sugar in each one. But they are Frosty and Delicious.

(Actually, the best fast food restaurant is Chickafila, but I left that out because they don't have it all over the states and I didn't want to make people who have never been there jealous. But everyone knows it's the best. I like their plain chicken sandwich with pickles. And they never put mayonnaise on anything UNLESS you ask. Which is how America was founded originally. So...

Dear Chickafila,
Thank you for you chicken and patriotism.)

And survey says...

Okay, so coming series of blogs is going to be in response to my pastor and pastor's wife's shared blog called "He Said, She Said." They've been posting their differing opinions about different issues and I decided I want in on that action. I am going to try to post something short on all their blogs, so we'll see how I do. I would recommend however that you read their blog first. It's funny. http://cadyhesaidshesaid.blogspot.com/

Reading:
I like to read a lot and I'm usually a fast reader with the books that Heather likes. I'd have to agree with Heather that I get the most relaxing enjoyment out of books that I could have read in the third grade.
When I do read a book that makes me flex my cerebral muscles however, I feel a keen sense of accomplishment. Fear and Trembling, by Soren Kierkegaard, for example, was not an easy read. However, it was one of the most interesting books I've ever read and gave me a new perspective on faith. It was also a pleasure to read in a different way- when I have to stop and put the book down so that I can think for a minute or two before moving on, I feel like I'm actually learning. Someone once said (I can't remember who) that most people when they think don't actually think, they just "rearrange their prejudices." I don't know what I think about people being capable of having original thoughts but we can have thoughts that are original to us- like that time I thought I invented Christian Hedonism and then someone told me about John Piper. So in "summa" my love for reading has more to do with escaping into stories like the Chronicles of Narnia or the Lord of the Rings but my love for knowledge is different. I love reading not for the knowledge but for the story.

OH and PS.

Tonight Troy told the story of Gabriel and I just want to say publicly (because I don't think Troy knows how talented he is [Amy and I have decided that he doesn't]) that it was VERY VERY good. I think this Christmas since I'll be at his house, I will require some Christmas story complete with different voices or something. Like the Grinch or something. I haven't decided yet. or something.
