I have officially taken off work on Friday. Why? You see, the way I'm
looking at it, if I had to go to work on Friday, time would LITRALLY
STAND STILL. It would be a slow, miserable day filled with anticipation
(and most likely a hangover). Instead, I get to sleep in, get some Hot
Doug's*, and probably just start pre-gaming for Saturday a full day in
advance. Plus, if one holiday (Labor Day) results in a three day
weekend, shouldn't a double holiday (Labor Day AND UW Season Opener)
yield a FOUR day weekend? This logic is ironclad and I don't think I
could be more excited to not have to work the day before Badger football
powers its way back into our lives. My boss put up zero debate because
he knew that if I came in on Friday, I would be listening to the same 5 or 6 songs on repeat all day while incessantly checking the clock.
*Speaking of Hot Doug's, I have obviously been scoping out the menu in advance of my feast. I turn to you to help me decide. TOP CONTENDERS:
*Speaking of Hot Doug's, I have obviously been scoping out the menu in advance of my feast. I turn to you to help me decide. TOP CONTENDERS:
- Taco Pork Sausage with Green Chili Mustard, Elote Relish and Queso Asadero. I do LOVE me some elotes. No idea what queso asadero is, but queso anythingadero is perfectly fine in my book.
- Cayenne and Cheddar Pork Sausage with Chipotle Dijonnaise and Habanero-Jack Cheese. It may surprise you to know that I'm a huge fan of food spicy enough to make you sweat while eating. Whenever something has the word 'habanero' in it, my eyes lock on.
- Ribeye Steak Sausage with Horseradish Cream Sauce, Caramelized Onions and Carrigaline Smoked Farmhouse Cheese. Steak sausage? OOOO.
- Wild Rice and Asiago Cheese Bison Sausage with Bacon-Garlic Mayonnaise and Mustard Seed Gouda Cheese. Not a big mayo guy. HUGE bacon-garlic anything guy. CONUNDRUM.
Send your votes in ASAP, or I'm gonna end up getting a hot dog and gently weeping the rest of the night.
PS - You will NEVER guess what next week's food porn picture will be of.
CHICAGO BADGERS: Get your crew of flunkies and join us at Will's, the most Wisconsin of all the Wisconsin bars in Chicago. Gonna recommend getting there early if you want a table/spot outside with a decent view. Hope to see you there.
STILL LOOKING FOR REFERRALS: Spread the word; send me email addresses - all that stuff.
2 freakin' days. LET'S go!
