Say W-H-A-T?

I was quite excited this week as my company has decreed that we now have Veteran's Day off. Having a day off mid-week is like finding a $5 in your jeans (or dungarees) pocket.

I hadn't planned on doing much Tuesday night, writing is supposed to be my main priority. But whilst perusing last week's Metroland, (that's right I'm a week behind but work life has been completely fucking crazy!) I spied the 4th Annual Spelling Bee at both Bomber's Burrito Bar locations. And guess what, y'all?! I made it to the grand championship round that's happening this Monday. Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it to the final round and vie for 250 clams as I going up to the Adirondacks for a few days.

Interesting side note, audience participation is NOT welcome. Some drunk dude tried to help me and nearly got the boot from Bomber's. Those spelling bee moderators do not fuck around.
