Remember when BK had the slogan "We Do It Your Way"? Well, apparently they don't adhere to that anymore.
Tonight I stopped by BK because I was wanting a veggieburger, but since I'm moving in a few days, I didn't want to add to my freezer contents. (by buying a box of them)
Well, they have the Mushroom and Swiss steakburger. I LOVE Mushroom and Swiss. When I was in highschool in Minnesota at a boarding academy I would walk into town twice a month to Hardee's and get their Mushroom and Swiss - hold the burger. Texas doesn't have Hardee's.
Anyway. I ordered a BK Veggie Burger and asked them to put mushrooms and swiss on it. I was told they couldn't do that. So I said, well then, could you give me the steakburger, but just switch out the veggieburger for the steakburger? Nope, can't do that.
Arghh!!! Seriously, how hard is it to add mushrooms and swiss to a different sandwich??
So at any rate, I've made some progress on my getting ready for Sunday's move. My freezer is completely defrosted, and all my books are packed up. I've tossed some clothing that needed badly to be tossed. Next I need to get my kitchen all packed up.
Tomorrow I'll be working from 6 to 11, and then I have to do a library observation from 3 to 5 (for one of my classes) so I'm going to have to pack fast. Most likely I'll end up leaving some of it to be packed Saturday night and early Sunday morning before the movers get here.

Hold the lettuce
Special orders don't upset us
All we ask is that you let us
Serve it your way!
That was their jingle when I was a child, back when I'd never been in a BK, years before they had a mushroom & Swiss steak burger.
BK has a veggie burger? In Texas, no less?
You are headed in to the home stretch this week.

Whitestripe, that burger sounds really good! It's funny the lady had such a hard time understanding what you were wanting.
Thanks Mrs! I shouldn't be offline - even if my main pc is off for awhile, my iPhone will still connect.
Ceejay, Roy Rogers sounds like a great place for vegetarians and people who are very particular about what they want on their sandwich. I'm surprised I never went to one when we lived in NJ (30 minutes from NYC.)

I've had some trouble getting connected to the internet - now am connected and am trying to get all classwork finished before Wednesday. I'm planning on updating once I'm a little more caught up.
In a few words - I'm moved - mostly.
