Ok, friends, but we're not talking about just any taco. This taco was, far and away, the best taco I've ever had in the lovely metropolis of Columbia, Missouri. (Note: the best-ever was at La Taqueria in San Francisco, CA). Now while many of you out there understand the significance of a spicy, onion-y taco wrapped in a fresh corn tortilla, I realize that some people may not. For those people, I must note that I did nothing of worth all day, thus promoting the taco from its precarious position to one of great stature.
Subsequent events of my day include: a nap, a shower, some tea, macaroni and cheese, red wine, iron chef america. Oh, and my inevitable promise of burning in hell. Now, let me explain this. After 12 years of Catholic school (and probably an even greater amount of time ignoring the church's most important liturgical season, Lent), I have made a commitment. This Lent, I am going to give up sweets. Like any God-fearing Catholic, however, I adhere to the infamous Sunday rule, which grants not-so-dedicated Lent-ers one day a week during which they can re-nig on their abstinence and do whatever they hell they want - Eat cookies, drink diet coke, have a beer, set fire to a church - ANYTHING! Well, like an asshole, I traded my Sunday for Saturday (I went to a party with cake last night). Alas, I had the cake again today.
So there you have it. An eternity of burning (or freezing — this point is still debated by experts in the field) in hell, and all for a couple of bites of icing. Should've just had a cigarette. Would've saved me a lifetime of eternal damnation. So, for your viewing pleasure, I have constructed a playlist of songs that I am sure will be played on repeat in Satan's playground. (I should preface this by saying that I believe that Satan actually has great taste in music.)
1. Sympathy for the Devil - Rolling Stones (I think my reasoning is pretty obvious here)
2. We Didn't Start the Fire - Billy Joel (And if the aforementioned "freezing theory" is, in fact, correct, this would of course be replaced with "Baby It's Cold Outside." Ray Charles version)
3. Mustang Sally - Wilson Pickett
4. King of the Road - Roger Miller
5. Hard Sun - Eddie Vedder
The playlist is short, yes. Good music, but only 5 songs. For all of eternity. That's why they call it hell and not the land of neverending sunshine.
