Quest accomplished y’all. Quest accomplished. There I was, not even actively questing when my sister and I stopped into a Taco Bell for lunch in Ft. Worth, Texas. My eyes were instantly drawn to an item on the menu “Chili Cheese Burrito $1.29″. It was like in a dream, I questioned whether or not I *was* in fact dreaming. Surely, surely, I was reading the menu wrong. I read it over and over again until it dawned on me- this Taco Bell for really real sold Chili Cheese Burritos. My quest had come to an end.
I’m not going to lie to y’all. I may have gotten a bit overexcited. I may have high-fived my sister more than once. I may have called Captain Thoughtful, all a a-twitter with the excitement of accomplishing my quest. I may have eaten two Chili Cheese Burritos. I may have cried. (I didn’t cry).
This is the face of someone who has completed a quest…and also someone who is eating a burrito.
After 16 years, it was everything I had remembered and more because accomplishment tastes really freaking good. (And so does chili and cheese in a burrito)
You know, I just set this quest for myself like 1 month ago. I am obviously excellent at questing. I may be the world’s best quester and it would be foolish to squander such a gift so…..
Next quest: To find my favorite and therefore the best BBQ in Central Texas.
