Even for me, not a whole
lot happened this past week so this will be a little shorter than
usual. This past Monday, I went to the local Zaxby's restaurant in
town. I had been to other locations of that Southern chicken-focused
before but for some reason I never had tried the one only a few miles
away from me, even though I think it has been there for two years
now, if not longer. That was a fine meal I got from there on this day
so I should frequent the place more often. Tuesday and Wednesday, I
did nothing of note, except that I stopped at a convenience store and
purchased a 20 ounce bottle of the newest limited edition Mountain
Dew: Merry Mash-Up, which is the odd-sounding combination of
cranberry and pomegranate. It was actually not half-bad.
Thursday, that was a
hectic day-I say that only due to how wretched traffic was. Two of
the main drags I took to the Orlando-Sanford Airport to pick someone
up ended up being traffic jams due to accidents. Thus, I had to take
alternate routes to get to the random “sports pub” I stumbled
upon online the night before. I saw high ratings for Flanagan's in
Longwood so I gave it a shot. It was a smoking establishment-which
was news to me-but while I am not a fan of cigarettes I was able to
put up with that. Many states (including Illinois) has banned smoking
in restaurants and clubs but not Florida. At least the food was good,
the staff was fine, the music on the jukebox included the entirely of
Rush's 20 minute song 2112, and some random guy even paid for my
beer. I picked up that person from the airport and on the way back I
not only passed by another wreck but some A-hole drove by me going AT
LEAST 100MPH... regrettably he wasn't the one who later crashed and I
was crestfallen a cop car wasn't around at the time.
Friday through Sunday I
really did nothing at all, unless people want to hear about my trip
to Walmart to get some miscellaneous items. At least there were
things I could do at home, like watch LivePD and halfway pay
attention to football... even the Sunday night Chicago Bears game
against the Minnesota Vikings. Chicago won 25-20 as they finally
faced better competition. There was the typical nonsense that has
ruined the NFL and it had an impact on the game, but at least the
Bears won.
When I return a week from
today, I should hopefully have more to discuss; at least I know of a
few things I'll be doing.
