Cuppa

Some fast food places have larger cup sizes than others. For instance, the largest Subway cup is not nearly as big as the largest MacDonald's cup. So when I went to In & Out today, I couldn't remember where their cups fall in the thimble-to-bucket continuum. I guessed, incorrectly, that they had some of the smaller cups in the business. So I ordered an extra large 7-Up with no ice, and a double double with cheese. They gave me my burger in a small box, and my 7-Up in a paper vat. It was much too big to fit all the way into my cup holder. Luckily I could cram the bottom half inch of the cup far enough into the holder that it didn't jump onto the floor on my way home.

A vat of pop wouldn't have been a bad thing back when I was drinking (literally) a gallon of Coke a day. But I've cut down considerably since then, and it took me a good 3 hours to finish my 7-Up. By the end it was a tad warm and tasted a bit cuppy. It's a good thing I'm disgusting and don't care what temperature my drink is.

[Some may think this is an awfully lame post with which to break a week's worth of silence. And those people would think right. I may have actual news soon, and then I write it out here. But until then, you'll just have to make do with boring babblings on my posture and adventures with abnormally large drink containers.]
