We have a new strip mall. It features two new chain restaurants. Oh, joy, more assembly line cuisine! The odd thing is, they both start with the letter Q. Qdoba Mexican Grill and Quizno's Subs. What are the odds, do you suppose? Of two food establishments starting with the second least often used letter in the alphabet opening in the same strip mall in the same month in a midwestern college town with a population of 18,504 people? I do not wish to do the math. Also, I am three days into the three month period where I might possibly be called for jury duty. Shhhhh. I'm not available. I'm sure I'll come up with a good ex-q'ss...

About Me
- Bellona of Avalon
- Lacey, Washington, United States
- I was born in Colorado to a full-blooded Norwegian/American mother from North Dakota and a Cajun/Scottish father from Mississippi. Raised and educated in four states, eight public schools, and one liberal arts Lutheran college, I somehow ended up in South Dakota and was married to a mostly Dutch guy for twenty years. I then returned to Colorado for a seven year experiment living at high altitudes. I now call the Pacific Northwest home where I try to blend in with the natives driving my Subaru Outback and sporting hiking boots. I have two sons whom I adore beyond reason. The younger one lives with me and spends an inordinate amount of time on his computer creating video games and composing music. The elder one lives nearby with his amazing wife and their fluffy pup Gimli. I currently find myself without the companionship of a feline which feels odd to me. Technically I'm a grownup but I seldom behave like one. © 2007-2024 Carla VanBemmel

Qwazee!
Indeed. I was a little disappointed that Q is only the second least used letter in the alphabet. That honor goes to Z. My little diatribe would have been ever so much better if Q took the cake.
I just realized that I haven't been called for jury duty in fifteen years. *knocks on wood*
