My new boyfriend

It all started so innocently when the new Sonic (my favorite sonic!) opened a few months ago on Valley Mills. Let me first say that this particular Sonic is my favorite for two reasons...First, it has a handy dandy drive-thru. Second, this location is the only Sonic that offers happy-hour in which drinks are half off between 2 and 5 pm during the week. With these special perks, I have been a dovoted fan of this Sonic. About two weeks into visiting my new favorite Sonic, the drive-thru guy had started to make little jokes about how he sees me there so often. well, crap...i'm an addict. i suppose this type of thing should embarrass me... but come on! the drinks are half off and i am cheap! (and by cheap i mean frugal, not whorish) who cares if the guy knows what I am going to order before I even get the chance to order it myself? i have a budget and an addiciton, and happy hour at sonic provided the solution for both. after some refletion, i did start to feel a bit embarrassed so I decided to go visit other sonics in order to keep my dirty addiction a secret. I vowed I would only go through his location twice a week in order to prove to the sonic man that I was not an addict and that I could go several days without my diet coke....afterall, he didnt know i was visiting other sonics. this, of course, didnt last very long. i was a junkie for a cheap drink. i soon found myself going back to happy hour every other day....then everyday. like a true addict, i lied to the guy at the drive through. i told him the drinks i was ordering weren't for me....they were for my boss, my friend, my sister, my mom....anyone but me! he would just smile, take my money, and wish me a good day. he was nice. so nice that after a few more visits i didn't feel it was necessary to lie anymore. since i have stopped lying, our relationship has really grown. it's been a few months now. he doesn't know this, but the sonic drive-thru guy is my new boyfriend. ok, so we only date 35-40 seconds a day, monday through friday, between the hours of 2 and 5 pm....but i think thats enough to build a lasting relationship on. some people think he's only my boyfriend bacause i pay him on a daily basis...not true. i have had coupons for FREE drinks and he his still just as nice to me. I gave him a valentine on valentine's day. he MUST be my boyfriend! i dont know his name yet, but he knows mine so that has to count for something. plus, he's old...silver hair and OLD! what more could i ask for. it only he were bald....i'll give it a few years. that's only 520 more visits. by then, he will be the perfect man. Maybe I should drink more water.
