the concept of time

i am still on eastern time. since nothing here has acclamated me to pacific time, aka a 9-5 job, i'm still on the eastern clock, getting up at 6 here, 9 there to check in with the office. my computer is still set to eastern time, and i'm much more conscious of the c.o.b. hours on the east than i am here. added to the fact that my parents work non-normal hours, my mind and body are utterly confused. it's no wonder i don't even know what the date is much less the day of the week.

it's odd how routine and schedule can be such comforts. i always thought that having a treadmill at home meant i would just run all day long. but alas, i too even miss driving to the the gym at a routine hour to get my routine workout in. once my car gets here (i shipped it) and my out of state check clears in my new bank account, i'll feel more like myself. but this inbetween? blech.

though on a high note, i had in-n-out burger today. oh you luscious burgers how i've missed you!

In-n-out burgers: That reminds me of "The Big Lebowski" -- classic film.

What IS an In-n-Out Burger? We don't have those in the Midwest. Are they like White Castle sliders?

OMG! blasphemy! an in-n-out burger is the exact opposite of a white castle slider. they're simple and fresh burgers like they made back in the day. buns are made fresh, lettuce hand leafed. the company owns the farm land where their cattle and produce is raised. the restaurants only make burgers, fries and shakes. that's all. you must get thee west to try them. seriously!
