The One Time I Wondered Why A Car's Windshield Said, “I (Heart) White Girls”

True story, I ended up at the Altamonte Mall for a bit on Friday the 13th; on that day all I did that I'll mention here is that I was in Orlando for a few hours and the highlights there were getting food from Giraffas (that one Brazilian quick service place I had been to twice before) and before I went home I walked around the Altamonte Mall and for the first time in years I got an old school Orange Julius from the place known as Orange Julius-that was good-but the highlight of the day was that strange message I saw on the front windshield of a beat-up first generation Miata. I have a number of questions about this and I imagine some of them would have been answered had I known who the driver was, but I never got the chance.

To think that it wasn't even the oddest thing I saw this past week. Saturday night I returned to good old Twin Peaks. The one lady who I talked about the last two times I was there was not around, but that is OK as all the women there are pretty nice (honestly, they made a bigger deal out of me not getting my bread pudding quickly than I did; the concern was appreciated by me, though). I went there to see the UFC pay per view. This one was from a soccer stadium in Brazil so over 45,000 people were there and it was a nice lineup. Overall the show was pretty entertaining and my time there was uneventful; I could have done without some incredibly loud people there but I am used to such things. What completely caught me off guard was when I saw two young adult males walk in... dressed in SpongeBob SquarePants outfits! One dude was SpongeBob and the other was SpongeBob's friend Patrick. I have no explanation for this. If they would have been with someone and those dudes had lost a bet, then OK. But they were there by themselves and did not sit with anyone else. After awhile, they left. Were they just tools who thought that doing this would be funny? It's Florida, so perhaps.

To get back on the chronological kick, last Monday the 9th all I did was return to Winter Garden Village for the first time in awhile. I walked around and from Planet Smoothie, I got the Passion Fruit Pucker drink, which was pretty good. Tuesday, all I did was go to Walmart, and thankfully that was uneventful and the “typical Walmart crowd” wasn't thick as thieves and none of them were grossly irritating. Wednesday, I went with someone (a Sam's Club member) to Sam's Club and we got several random items in bulk (mainly food & drink) and after that we ate at a Denny's. I built my own Grand Slam Breakfast where I had pancakes, a biscuit, two sausage links and two strips of bacon; it was pretty tasty.

As I already talked about my Friday and Saturday, let me mention that I didn't do a darn thing on Sunday. I'll spare telling everyone about some of the really horrid traffic I experienced in the past week and instead mention that when I return next Monday, my schedule is pretty bare... but I know that'll change.
