Blood and burgers
Sometimes, really odd and memorable things happen to you while eating creating this odd memory link between the taste and the event . Like your very first "I'm so wasted could you hold my hair back" drink (I will never have a Cape Cod again). Or that perfect pizza on your first date with your significant other. Well, I had such an event and food pairing yesterday.
On my way home I was walking to the bus stop when all of a sudden an intense and sudden pain came at my face. I screamed and looked around and saw a man running away from me. He had punched my designer sunglasses into my face, crushing them into a flat wreckage of metal and glass. The blood was spilling out of my nose and mouth as if the hoover dam broke and i was just there screaming in pain and in complete confusion. Luckily, a hospital was across the street and an ambulance saw me about 30 seconds after the incident.
A few hours and 2 vicodins later, im feeling better, shaken but better. a few of my friends had rushed to the hospital to see the elephant man i had become. they were really sweet, my friend Rosalva even gave me an intensive hand massage with lotion.
Afterwards, my other friends Ariel and Dan took me out to Rally's. Neither of us had ever been to Rally's but we decided to give it a go. We sure were glad we did too because it was a pretty darn good burger with seasoned fries. I ordered a double whatever they had. It was a little heavy on the mayo side, but for the first time, I didn't mind, maybe it was the Vicodin talking, or the blood that still lingered in my mouth.
So I guess im shelving the Rally's burger up with the Cape Cod and the Palmermo's pizza. Let's hope the next food item included on the list will involve a lot less violence.
