Sonic is coming to town!

Sonic is America's Drive-In. It's also the place where delicious burgers, fries, chili-cheese coneys and frito pies stick directly to my thighs and butt. When I moved from TN to PA, one thing I could mark off my list of temptations was Sonic. There was not Sonic within approximately 40 miles of where I live. It was a curse at times when I could've killed for a cherry limeade, but also a blessing.

I couldn't treat myself to Sonic secretly and tell people I had a salad for lunch. No sneaking tater tots, no dipping chicken fingers in mystery gravy on the sly. There was no Monday night Brown Bag special available. Now all this has changed. Sonic is opening less 1 mile from my office. Less than 1 mile! I am excited, but also terrified of my lack of self-control.

Text message conversation between me and my husband from this morning:

Me: Sonic is going in right down the street from my work!! (hints of elation and panic)

Him: Hahaha - Watch yourself big girl.

That says it all.
