< Upheaval: Life Goals

Life Goals

Daniel took me to Tyler (a huge metropolis to our north) last weekend to get some last minute things for baby, such as a stroller and carseat. One of my favorite things about bigger cities than mine is the everpresent Jason's Deli that is inevitably right around the corner from where we are shopping.

I love Jason's Deli. I get a turkey wrap with fruit, and a sweet tea. Then I get two complementary yellow muffins and two complementary brown muffins to eat with my meal. Then I finish the whole thing off with a low-fat ice cream cone. Yes, it is a bit ritualistic, but that is sort of how I am.

Life is good at Jason's Deli. It is so good, that if you enjoy life to the age of 99, you get to eat there free. ALL THE TIME.

I don't have a lot of really ambitious goals in life, but living to be that age, and living right beside a Jason's Deli are two of my goals. It keeps me going on tough days. Really!

You have to be 99 to eat there free? What if you are 98 1/2 on your death bed and all you want is a turkey wrap with fruit and four complimentary (which is questionable, by the way) muffins?

I do hope Dillon will encourage you have a few more lofty goals than to live next door to a Jason's Deli. I'll talk to him.

I love Jason's Deli. I used to go there all the time in college and when I was doing my teaching classes because there was a Jason's Deli right across the street from my apartment. These days I don't get to go there very often, but I see one every once in awhile and try to stop in. Yummy! :)

how sad for you, ben. just file this under "reasons to move out of this armpit called Minnesota."

Ben, here are some states you need to move to (in order to partake): Alabama, Arizon, Arkansas, Colorado, Flordia, Gerogia, Iowa, Kansas, Lousiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, Oklahoma, North or South Carolina, Tennessee, TEXAS, Virginia, or Utah.

Just thought I would be helpful! :)

Well, I guess your obsession with Jason's Deli is like mine with Corner Bakery. I get the same thing every time, without fail.

Though Jason's DOES have a delish Philly Chicken Wrap. Mmmmm...

YUMMMM... i LOVE corner bakery. particularly the the roast beef sandwich. except, the meat is practically raw, because apparently everyone likes bloody rare sandwiches. so i always have to ask them to throw the meat on the grill for a few minutes longer.

and then it gets brown. aka, cooked.
