Night owls

Any of you night owls just suddenly get a craving for food and drive somewhere to get some? Reason I ask is that at 3 am, I got a craving for Whataburger's breakfast taquitos and I had to drive down the street to get some and I'm wondering if I'm the only one crazy enough to do that.

Just got off work and came back to the hotel room and cranked up the fire place. Getting ready to have a bowl-o-bran, does that count?

Let's see. I can eat a whole large pizza by myself. And then 15 minutes later, I can eat another one. I weigh 135lbs and I've been eating like this for 6 months. I used to eat a double meat hamburger with everything, a super size fry, and a large chocolate milkshake every day for a year straight. I still weigh 135. I'm not to worried about that.

Is that new? I don't remember there being a WB on Rock Prairie when I was there and I drove through there hundreds of times (used to drive for Hope Lumber on Longmire just north of Rock Prairie).

Hoss, it's been here since I moved here so I don't know. It's right off of highway 6, across the street from the BlockBuster.

I haven't eaten at that McDonald's yet. Only time I go to that side of town is when I'm headed to Northgate or Home Depot. I've eaten at Cheddar's quiet a few times.

Man....I can't believe how much that place has changed since I left just 3-1/2 short years ago. They've got stuff popping up all over the place. When I was there the only thing at Rock Prairie and Hwy 6 was the First National Bank on one corner and that gas station directly across the street. In fact, about the only thing on Rock Prairie was the bank, the gas station, the hospital, a couple of schools and the houses that were right next to the road. Actually, it wasn't until my last year there that Rock Prairie was extended out to Welborn Road. It used to end at that school down there.

I'm getting old I guess....

Let's see. There's a McDonald's, blockbuster, whataburger, a little shopping strip, the school, the First National Bank, a gas station right off of 6 and 2 at Welborn and Rock Praire. There's also another bank right across the street from the First National. There's a couple of office buildings. They were recently doing some construction on the hospital and put a hole through the main gas line going into the place.
