I just found your blog (clicked on your link from KT Lit.I like to find other writers). This is awesome. You gained a new reader. I had to call my whole family in to hear your blog. Hilarious. Thanks for the laugh!! :) Now I'm off to drive to McDonalds. I figure if I start guzzling that dipping sauce now I can qualify for the next Olympics with no problem. Screw writing, this is a much easier goal! Okay. I just found your blog (clicked on your link from KT Lit.I like to find other writers). This is awesome. You gained a new reader.

But I guess they can say what they want since they pony up the big bucks. And my kids get a Happy Meal about once a year. We are friends with the dollar menu, when we go to those places.
