On the Eternal Burrito

I (Rusty) must admit I had a moment of weakness just over three weeks ago. This event happening over three weeks ago, alone, makes this entry all the more unnerving. Rachel and I were making the long trek up from Tennessee to Indiana to visit some family there before heading over to Ohio to finish up our summer-o-visitation. We stopped in at a gas station just outside Evansville, Indiana to get some lunch for the road. I saw the ham and cheese burritos setting out and, in a moment of reminisence about the great 7/11 burritos in Japan, grabbed one.

I must admit that I only had one or two of them in Japan but connect the thought of them with good friends in Japan who seemed to be sustained by them when they were single. I've tried to be much more health concious lately so I've tried to vere from such microwavable heart attacks as of late. However, as stated for reasons earlier, I grabbed the nearest one and headed to the car. I ate about six bites before I began to worry about my own demise from the greasy-fat content I read on the nutritional information included on the packaging. I then stuck it in the bag and during the rest of our traveling managed to forget that I stuck the bag in the glove compartment at some point. Well, we left Indiana after a day and headed up to Ohio where, almost upon arrival, our car was placed in a body shop because a truck backed into it and it took a while to finish all the repairs. Anyway, today, about three weeks after enjoying the six bites of the gas station burrito, we got a car back from the body shop. Rachel was exploring the car and found the burrito in the glove compartment.

Here is the kicker, the burrito looks almost brand new!!! No mold! No degeneration of any kind. I'm not sure if I accidentaly grabbed the wax display burrito for the shop but somehow I doubt that's the case. Anyway, that was quite a shock. However, if this burrito will last forever, and 'you are what you eat,' then perhaps I should buy the whole box. Or, maybe I should find out what miraculous chemicals they treated these eternal burritos with and just inject it directly into my veins to live long and prosper.

Please Stay Tuned...We're Experiencing Technical Difficulty

Friends and Fam,

Many of you have been asking for some updates and new bloggage. While we never want to dissapoint our viewing audience, we must ask you to bear with us as we transition from a life in Mito to a life in Memphis. Blogging, and internet in general are not quite as easy as the days of Yahoo Broad Band (BB). However, we'll be back on the air shortly with more updates on a good 5-10% of our lives we share on the public domain. Until then, if you have any catchy titles for our blog to sum up our new life in Memphis, shoot them our way! TTFN! BFF! TGIF! LYLAS/B!

P.S. For those interested, after a long and strenuous bout with allergies (I forgot how wicked they were this time of year for me in the States) and moving, I believe the 06-Pack challenge is up and running again:)!
