Ugh, the Latin Fusion place down the street has good food and great service, but there was a table of... I don't know, misplaced oil rig workers or something getting absolutely plastered on cheap pitchers before 7:30. The only noun one guy appears to know is motherfucker, and they were all slurring and getting fresh with the waitress by the time I left. I hope she gets a good tip.
You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Utah doesn't have liquor stores either?

Oh, we do. State controlled, which means heavily Mormon-influenced, and the liquor board seems to be full of people reluctantly admitting that there are those in the state who want to participate in a vice that is legal but frowned upon (there's a heavy "more than one drink in an evening means you have an alcohol problem" feeling). So the liquor is heavily taxed, and the selection is meager. There was a well-regarded branch that specialized in higher-end wine and spirits, in a wealthy part of Salt Lake, but the board determined that resources could be better used elsewhere and shut down their most-profitable branch. The liquor stores are one of the most successful departments, but their budget keeps getting cut.
So, yes, lots of people buy out of state.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The last time I was in Las Vegas, my friend from Utah thought she might get some scratch tickets for her kids' stockings, but guess what? No lottery in Nevada! They have casinos for that.

I went 24 hours without a fever so we went out to breakfast and ran a few errands. And then I got clammy. K-Bug sent me to my room. I'm spending my time updating worksheets for the non-profit and watching Sports Night.

Got up, had part 1 of a new crown, saw my dad, came home and crashed out. I made it to the supermarket just now (got my free knives from the not-Green Stamps thing!), and I think that's going to be it for me. I should clean and do laundry and everything else, but maybe tomorrow.

Our wings are not tired.
Did some work all morning then watched some Dr Who. Followed by a nice soak in my whirlpool tub with oil and bubbles and stuff. I think it is the third time I have used it. Need to do that more often for sure. Have a birthday party to go to for my SIL tonight. Pretty chill day.
Hope the knee and the car end up better than expected, Juliebird.
No lottery win for me. Need to do that buy a ticket thing if I am going to win. Always seem to neglect to do that part.

Knee feels great, but whoa whiplash said hello this morning and has settled in. Icing it and I'm ready for my next round of ibuprofen.
