Take a Break, America

Okay, maybe I went a little overboard with all the emails, texts, and phonecalls, but I was really excited about this free meal. Why? Because it was way more than a free meal... indulge me this. Finally, someone at the top is giving something back. This economy isn't just hurting people who can't and don't pay their bills, it's hurting those of us who go without food to pay our bills. Those of us who understand what it means to fight for a good name and great credit. Does anyone care about that anymore? I'm so tired of seeing the rampant dishonesty and irresponsibilty of our society. Sure, go ahead and give that banana to your child to eat before you get to the check out at Wal-Mart. Way to stick it to the man. You cheated Wal-Mart out of 32 cents... I hope it was worth your SOUL!! Okay, I know that'a a little extreme, but really, what has happened to everyone's sense of integrity? Something seems amiss when your accountant is asking "Just how big of a tax return do you want... I can work the numbers." Really? Is it worth it? I don't know, it all seems black and white to me. So thank you Denny's for taking a hit for the working class American who needed a break.



We got up at 5:30 to beat the sure to come lines. The kids thought it was cool that they were awake before the sun, they even made up a little jingle to sing for the drive, "Wake up the sun... Wake the sun up!"



My boys love a free meal.



And we love having no dishes to clean afterwards.



Mmmmmmmmmm, my tummy is so happy.

Thanks for the heads up - we actually went (not before the sun came up though!) I agree, every little bit helps in saving money these days. And it's always fun to throw a little variety into the day, right? :)

Thanks so much for the announcement. We went too late and the lines were too long and Tory had to get back to work soon. But it was definitely awesome to see something really for free.
