Elvis vs Chicken Nuggets

Posted on December 30, 2018March 6, 2023 By Sammy Younan

Sad to hear via email my friend’s little monkey is not feeling well. That sucks. I can sympathize with the ailing child as my tummy hurts a bit too…today I made 20 chicken nuggets and sat down with them to watch HBO’s 4 hour Elvis documentary: The Searcher.

The nuggets took me out though somewhere in the middle…I feel asleep…Elvis was skinny but when I woke up he was fat; oh snap. Where’s the remote?

I have ESPN’s 20 hour Basketball: A Love Story I kinda wanna knock it off in one full day; with the remaining time I have during my Christmas break.

So not doing 20 nuggets that day…that day is work. Gonna start 2019 off with some wisdom!
