you cant have your mcrib and eat it too - if youre me


it figures...my first post and its about mac d's.  :-)

when i arrived in colorado for a glorious and much needed winter break i ranted to my best friend about how i had been craving a mcrib sandwich for quite some time.  later that evening i saw on the interweb that the mcrib was going to be re-retired at the end of 08.  i thought, "well damnit, just my luck.  i didnt even know it was even around."  

 a few days later my friend and i were at mac d's getting her a morning coffee and much to my surprise i saw the giant applique sign in the window for the mcrib.  i squealed like a mechanically separated pork product at the thought of having a saucy bbq laden mcrib accompanied by a cold nuclear orange drink.  the little kid in me was doing cartwheels!

three weeks later i still hadnt gotten around to getting that delicious little sandwich, but i figured that once i got back to rhode island i would grab one during my lunch hour.  normally i try to avoid mac d's, but my coworkers are fat kids for french fries, so i knew i could easily make a guilt-free food run.

nope.  didnt happen.  not a chance jack.  they arent selling them here, just as they werent seeling my favorite sweet tea at the mac d's in colorado.  by the way, why would they sell sweet tea to the yanks, but not out west?  its just plain rude not to share!

my gramma would say that its all a conspiracy against old people, but as i am merely thirty i doubt that is the case.

lord help me if i start having saucy love dreams!
