Southern Weekend
We returned last night from our long weekend in the South with Matt’s family. It was lots of fun.
One way to sum it up is: wedding barbecue with Hawaiian shirts and leis in Opelika, Alabama; a visit to the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga; dinner at a house filled with Disney memorabilia; an addictive card game.
Another way to sum it up is: Hardee’s, Dairy Queen, Golden Corral, Wal-Mart, another Wal-Mart, Chick Fil-A.
And now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to the gym.

How was the aquarium? You know I love them. And, how on earth did the Tennessee Aquarium end up with the URL “tennis.org”?
Chick Fil-A. Yummmmmm.
Mmmmmmm. Chick-Fil-A. I miss it so. Also, Waffle House. I would kill a man for some Waffle House goodness.
I love Golden Corral.
That’s all I got.
P.S.- Chick Fil-A is a right-wing xtian organization that is closed on Sundays and pressures its employees to attend church. But yeah, I’d kill a man for a Chick Fil-A sandwich.
It doesn’t appear Tin Man went to a Waffle House from that description, although given his UVa background, I’m sure he’s familiar.
My favorite Waffle House reference ever is the Onion’s headline: “Mason-Dixon Line to Be Renamed IHOP-Waffle House Line”. So true. And since one of the old stone markers making the line is literally 1 minute from my house, I can get to both chains easily.
