Freedom Fries
Ok, so you know those moments where you do something and immediately regret the decision? Yeah...I had one of those moments just now. I have been bringing my lunch everyday not only to save money but to also make more healthy choices about what I'm eating at lunch. However, for the past two weeks I have been craving McDonald's french fries. So today I wake up and think to myself "no pb&j for me...I'll be having the McDonald's french fries" So I make it through the first 5 hours of my day constantly day dreaming about the delicious, hot, crispy, potatoes I will be eating later and when 1pm comes I rush out the door. I get in my extremely hot, humid car with no air conditioning because to me it is worth it just to enjoy these fries. I pull up to place my order and the line is wrapped around the building. I am okay with this and when it is finally my turn I state "yes, I would like a LARGE fry" now because I have been craving them for so long I figured the large would satisfy my craving and I could go months without wanting them again. I pay for my treat and come back to work. I'm sitting at my desk preparing my ketchup mound (because I eat ketchup like it's a side dish) and I pull out a handful of fries. I dip them in some ketchup and take a bite. Now, these were not at all what I was looking forward to. They were cold, soggy, a little undercooked, and not at all delicious. I immediately regretted my decision as I decide to throw them in the trash instead of eating them. It was a huge let down! :(
