Monday, it was the last day that friend of one of my parents was down here (they flew back real early the next morning) so those two decided they wanted to go to the Longhorn Steakhouse, and that was fine by me. I had the chicken fingers and they were pretty darn good. Tuesday, it was a rainy day and I had to be out in order to get something for someone I know. I had to deal with the written concrete rule of “when it rains in Florida, everyone drives even worse” and I had to walk around in the rain, but I was still happy to help out that person. Wednesday, I went to Walmart to look for something; I got that along with some other items, including Mountain Dew Black Label. I had heard of that late last year and it finally was released nationally recently. It is a tasty beverage, thankfully.
Thursday, I went out and about; I was thinking of places I hadn't gone to in awhile and I realized I should make my return to Twin Peaks. I am sure some think I would only go there for the women who wear revealing outfits and that's nice and all... but they do make pretty tasty food and brew some of their own beers. After I got done there, I realize it shouldn't be so long before my next visit. On the way to the restaurant I stopped at a Barnes & Noble, where I used a giftcard I got for Christmas to get two miscellaneous books. Friday, I stayed in and relaxed; the same goes for Saturday. The only thing of note for those two days is that I saw parts of several Australian Football League games. I was happy that the new season has started as the last one ended in the fall. This was the second week; I wasn't able to see anything from the first week.
Sunday, that was an interesting day. I went to a Speedway gas station as I had heard-erroneously-that they sold Surge there but that is OK as I got several different beverages there, including Pepsi 1893 (both the flavors of “Cola” and “Ginger”; the gimmick is that it's all-natural) and in fountain form, the return of Mountain Dew: Pitch Black, which is a limited edition flavor of old. Because I am me I always called it Mountain Dew: Vin Diesel. When there was a Mountain Dew: Pitch Black 2 I called it Mountain Dew: The Chronicles of Riddick.
In the evening it was Wrestlemania, which I watched on the WWE Network. Honestly, I watch even less wrestling now than I have in the past few years, meaning that my watching is almost at zero. It's depressing considering how I used to be, and as a youth I was a gigantic fan. The Wrestlemanias of last year and two years ago got a lot of raves... honestly they were overrated to me. The show last night, it had some nice action but the wrong person usually won and it was WAY too long. The first match was at 5:45 PM on the pre-show and there were two more pre-show matches until 7, then the actual show was 7 until 11:45, which everyone said was a mistake. I thought it was still decent up to the ending of the Women's Championship 3 way match; after that, though, it took a nosedive and the show from that point was just bad. All that said, next year's Wrestlemania will be in Orlando and I DO plan on being there live at the show. Between that and all the independent pro wrestling shows that will be in the area the preceding two days, that will be a LONG weekend where plenty of cash is spent, but I'll worry about that around this time next year.
I'll be back a week from today and I do have some ideas in mind for the next seven days. You'll have to wait and see what those are.
