Before I even begin, let me say that I married a man from southern California and one of my dearest friends is also from southern California, so I feel like I can say these things. :)
Ronnie loves In N Out Burger.
Like really loves it.
If there is an In N Out even kind of nearby anywhere we are going. You can bet with 100% surety that we will be visiting it at some point.
It is as if In N Out is his lifeline. It keeps him connected to his beloved California.
So, with that in mind...
Ronnie and I just returned from a wonderful retreat for his firm. It was in San Francisco and awesome. Two of the mornings we were there, Ronnie had meetings so I hung out with different spouses of the other attorneys. On one such adventure, I noticed an In N Out . It was our last full day in San Francisco and we were pretty tightly scheduled with other activities. I chose to not disclose* the existence of the In N Out to Ronnie.
Fast forward about 8 hours. We have 1.5 hours before dinner and are walking the streets of Pier 39, killing time. We start to wander in the direction of In N Out. Ronnie noticed it, I admitted to already knowing about it and then...
What do we do next?
Find ourselves ordering a cheeseburger "animal style" and two shakes as our dinner appetizer.
It was like the cosmos aligned so that Ronnie could be connected once more.**
Yum.
*Look at me getting all "lawyer-y" on you.
**But really what is it with the intense love of the place? It's good, just not life changing.
