"Earth, Wind and Fire" radio is filling the office today thanks to Eric and Pandora. Not a bad way to wind down from the work week. It's especially nice to hear smooth 70's jams while digesting from the Legendary WINGFEST: 2012! That's right, today was the day that the long running ASC tradition came to pass. Seven of the eight Actual Sizers piled into Mary's car at lunch time today to venture into the ellusive Southside. April unfortunately couldn't join us leaving Mary and I to rep the female population of the office alone.
We rolled into Fat Heads where veterans Bob, Joe, Mary and Steve S. had all made their mark during the last Wingfest, and sat down to a heaping pile of wings. We were about to do what no other design team has done before; take on a whopping 110 wings. (Not to mention a superb batch of onion rings, just to get the taste buds flowing.) We dug in with eyes bigger than our stomachs as we shoveled wing after wing into our hungry bellies. As the plates began to empty, our stomachs started to fill...and after about an hour of munching we were left with only 13 wings on the table. A sad defeat for such a valiant effort.
Even with the shame of carrying home a styrofoam box of Fat Heads Originals, we drove home with our heads held high. I was very honored to be initiated into another ASC tradition, as I'm sure Steve G. and Eric were also. When we got back to the office it was back to work as usual. Everyone working hard to tie up any loose ends before taking-off for the weekend. Another week has come and gone for me at the office and I can't wait to see what the next one will bring.
Until next time!
