<p>I look in the store only to find light and dark brown sugar also.</p>
<p>Well guess what stupid brown sugar makers, I&#8217;m mixing the two together to get brown-brown sugar.</p>
<p><strong>Moral of the story:</strong> Sometimes your expectations are wrong but can forcibly be made right.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do I love Red Robin burgers?</p>
<p>There once was a time when grabbing a burger was an event.</p>
<p>Before there was mass marketing to romanticize the garbage passing as a burger does these days, people ate burgers because they were <strong>awesome</strong>. You didn&#8217;t need to convince anyone to go buy a burger. All it took was the fact that you <em>had</em> one before, to want one again as soon as possible.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m talking about <strong>two-handed, gotta-take-a-break-half-way-through</strong> burgers. I&#8217;m talking wear a dirty shirt and wash your hands because you&#8217;re about to bathe in the blessings of perfectly crafted livestock. <span id="more-954"></span></p>
<p>I dream of the time before, &#8220;Hey, you wanna go grab a burger?&#8221; prompted a, &#8220;Hmm, meh, I dunno,&#8221; response.</p>
<p>You should put it on your calendar and anticipate the <strong>exact moment</strong> you sit down and don&#8217;t even look at the menu. You know what you&#8217;re there for. And if you&#8217;re not the planning type, &#8220;Bro, we should go get some burgers,&#8221; is the best idea anyone can ever have on any given day.</p>
<p>And yeah, I said <em>sit</em> and <em>menu</em>. If you can walk up to a counter and get a burger in under 30 seconds, <strong>go home</strong>. Buy a taco. You don&#8217;t want that crap. It&#8217;s insulting. Get mad.</p>
<p>And don&#8217;t take a burger home with you. You double-fist that masterpiece in the environment it was born into. And once you&#8217;re half-way through, you set it down in its perfectly folded wax paper wrapper, sit back and <strong>wonder if you&#8217;ve ever really done anything significant enough in your life to deserve the position you&#8217;re in at that moment</strong>. Then, you go home alone afterwards and think about what you&#8217;ve just done.</p>
<p>You sit on your couch and write an entire blog post about it and <em>pray</em> that when you close your eyes for the night you&#8217;ll dream it all over again.</p>
<p>Weep, just for a moment, wondering if you ate it too fast. Promise to take longer next time. But hey man, you&#8217;re only human and restraint of that caliber just doesn&#8217;t exist. <strong>Nay, it <em>can&#8217;t</em> coexist with the burger.</strong> That would dismantle the foundation of everything we&#8217;re talking about.</p>
<p>Your day was perfect. You can&#8217;t remember a single bad thing that happened to you that day due to the blinding satisfaction of your burger. If tasting things were therapy, this burger would be the grand-daddy of all uppers.</p>
<p>Where do these dreams manifest?</p>
<p><strong>Red Robin.</strong></p>
<p>Red Robin burgers make me remember good things still happen in this world.</p>
<p>Do I love Red Robin burgers?</p>
<p>More accurately, I am <em>in</em> love with them.</p>
