KWEEN OF THE QUEENS POST
What are your personal laws and boundaries? What will you absolutely NOT do? What are some of the things that you do on a constant basis to help make our society a decent place to live, love and thrive?
Example: I never pick my nose in public, it's just something I wouldn't do! But I do always say please and thank you even to the waiters and waitresses I come in contact with.
You have until the 15th of this month.
I GUESS WE ALL HAVE THE BASIC THINGS THAT WE WILL OR WILL NOT DO, I AM NO EXCEPTION. BASICALLY, I TRY TO BE POLITE, TRY TO EAT WITH MY MOUTH SHUT, DONT BURP OR FART IN PUBLIC, AND SO ON AND SO FORTH, YOU KNOW THE TYPICAL DRILL.
BUT, WHAT DO I TRY TO DO THAT SOME MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT TRY TO DO? WHAT ARE MY PERSONAL STANDARDS OF LAWS AND BOUNDARIES? I WILL TRY TO LIST THEM HERE:
1. I TRY TO GET OUT OF CARS WAY WHEN CROSSING IN ROAD CROSSING, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY.
2. I DONT TOUCH THAT WHICH DOES NOT BELONG TO ME.
3. I TRY NOT TO LIE TO ANYONE, BUT WILL IF IT COULD CAUSE HARM NOT TO.
4. I TRY NOT TO MAKE PROMISES I CANT KEEP.
5. I TRY NOT TO SPEED.
6. I DO NOT STEAL.
7. I TRY TO BE AWARE OF OTHERS SPACES.
8. I TRY TO FORGIVE OTHERS WHO HAVE DONE ME WRONG.
AND LAST, BUT NOT LEAST........
I TRY NOT TO DO ANYTHING TO ANYONE THAT I WOULD NOT LIKE DONE TO ME.

WELL, WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT MY STATE?
I LIVE IN GEORGIA AND YES WE HAVE TOILETS IN THE HOUSE AND WE WEAR SHOES AND STUFF. WE ARE NOT ALL REDNECKS AND MOST OF US HAVE OUR TEETH AND DRIVE CARS.
WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE IN ATLANTA THAT IS NO WHERE ELSE?
WE ACTUALLY HAVE TWO THINGS.
ONE IS ACTUALLY IN MY HOME TOWN...THAT IS THE BIG CHICKEN...
THE MOUTH OPENS AND SHUTS
AND THE EYES ROLL AROUND...
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL ONE, THEY ACTUALLY
REBUILT IT SEVERAL YEARS AGO. IT WAS ERECTED
IN 1963 AS JOHNNY REBS CHICKEN, LATER
BOUGHT BY KFC.
MY FAVORITE THING IN GEORGIA IS
YES IT IS THE VARSITY!!!
OLD PICTURE OF THE VARSITY YEARS AGO!!
The World's Largest Drive-in sits on more than
two acres and can accommodate 600 cars and over
eight hundred people inside. On days of Georgia
Tech football games up to 30,000 people visit The
Varsity. It sells more than two miles of hotdogs
daily, a ton of onion rings, 2500 pounds of fresh
cut potatoes, 5000 homemade fried pies, and
300 gallons of chili, all of which are made from
scratch daily. The downtown Varsity is
also the world's largest single outlet for Coca-Cola.
This is where the now famous cry of
The Varsity started "What'll Ya Have"
Car Hops!
Identifying cars by number has always been
an integral part of the Varsity Drive-In
system. "Curb men" would sing and dance
their way to fame. The most famous of
our car hops was a man named Flossy Mae,
who sang the menu to customers for over
50 years. Well known TV and Movie star
Nipsy Russell also got his start
at The Varsity as car hop #46.
ANYWAY, I WILL ALWAYS BE A GEORGIA
BULLDOG FAN, I AM NOT A YELLOWJACKET
FAN AT ALL, BUT THOSE YELLOWJACKET
DOGS ARE TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!
AS FAR AS MOLDING MY CHARACTER....I HONESTLY
HAVE NO IDEA HOW IT HAS MOLDED MY CHARACTER,
OTHER THAN MY LOVE FOR GREASY ONION RINGS AND
YELLOW JACKET DOGS!!! -
HOME SWEET HOME
WELL I AM BACK...YEA!!!
LONG DRIVE AND EARLY MORNING, I
AM TOTALLY WORN OUT...

AND THEN THEY HEADED BACK TO
FORT BRAGG FOR WORK TODAY.
I GOT TO ACTUALLY WATCH THE
PLANE COMING IN FOR A LANDING...
WELL I AM GLAD TO BE BACK HOME,

THEN I DID A VIDEO OF THEM
UNLOADING THE PLANE...
THEN I GOT PART OF THE CEREMONY...
DILLON PATIENTLY WAITING...

DILLON JUST WONT LET GO...
THEN WE STAYED AT THE APARTMENT FOR A DAY...

CHANGES
WELL, LOTS GOING ON RIGHT NOW. MY EXHUSBAND AND MY 17-YEAR OLD ARE MOVING IN WITH ME IN THE COMING DAYS. WE ARE DOING SOME SWITCHING OF ROOMS, ADDING ANOTHER ROOM AND ADJUSTING. IT IS GOING TO BE INTERESTING. NO WE ARE NOT GETTING BACK TOGETHER, WE ARE BEST FRIENDS AND WE ARE BOTH IN NEED OF HELP, SO WHY NOT COMBINE THINGS AND HELP EACH OTHER OUT? I AM REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO IT BECAUSE MY 17-YEAR OLD WILL FINALLY BE LIVING BACK WITH ME, NOT 30 MINUTES AWAY WHICH IS HARD FOR BOTH OF US BECAUSE HE WORKS AND GOES TO SCHOOL AND LEADS A VERY BUSY LIFE AND IT MAKES IT REALLY HARD FOR US TO HAVE TIME TO SPEND TOGETHER. I AM EXCITED, HE IS EXCITED, WE ARE ALL EXCITED. YEAH!!! JEROMY IS ACTUALLY EXCITED AND HE USUALLY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT ANYTHING. HAHAHA... SO ANYWAY, WE MIGHT BE DOING THE MOVE THIS WEEKENED, OR WE MIGHT DO IT NEXT WEEKEND, NOT SURE YET WHICH WILL HAPPENED, DEPENDS ON GETTING PEOPLE TO HELP AND GETTING A TRUCK OR TRAILOR.
IN OTHER NEWS, TRAVIS WILL BE LEAVING AFGHANISTAN SUNDAY...YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM GOING TO NORTH CAROLINA SOMETIME NEXT WEEK FOR THE CEREMONY. I AM SOOOO EXCITED. THEN THEY WILL BE COMING TO GEORGIA FOR THE WEEKEND. WE ARE GOING TO GIVE KRISTI A "MALE SHOWER"... BASICALLY SHE HAD HER BABY SHOWER IN FLORIDA WITH HER FRIENDS AND FAMILY AND EVERYONE HERE IS TRAVIS' FRIENDS AND THEY ARE ALL "MALES". GET IT? THEY WANT TO PARTY WITH TRAVIS COMING BACK SO I DECIDED EVERYONE HAS TO BRING A PRESENT FOR KRISTI AND THEN THEY CAN PARTY WITH TRAVIS....HEHEHE!
