Laid back Saturday night

Just going with the flow. When you don’t have a plan, everything goes as planned.

I started out at It Doesn’t Matter. Thought I might run into someone I know there, but the place was pretty much dead. Even so, when my glass was empty and no waitress could be bothered to come out to check on me, I went inside, paid my tab, and left.

I was feeling a little hungry and wanted to check on John, so I headed up the road to his place. I didn’t see him when I first arrived because he was sprawled out on his recliner behind the bar. I did ask how he was doing later, and he shrugged and said, “at least I’m still alive.” I told him that’s a good thing and to keep fighting. He wasn’t looking so good, though.

The view from my seat at John’s while waiting for my meal to be served.
It had been quite some time since I’d enjoyed some Mexican food, so I went with the chicken enchiladas. It was more than I could finish.

Since I was making a semi-rare visit to John’s, I figured I’d order some take-out for the girls at Hideaway, conveniently located almost directly across the highway.

Crappy picture, but the girls love the Korean-style wings. I brought sixteen wings, and they were gone in minutes. And yeah, I know it wasn’t feeding day (that’s today), but it’s fun to surprise them occasionally. Plus, I had to drink somewhere, so why not at Hideaway?
In Joy.

Some drinkin’ and dancin’ and singin’ along with my favorites. Like this one:

I finished the evening at Wet Spot and had a pleasant time interacting with the boss at the VIP table.

Nothing much else to write about today. Mary says she’s coming for lunch, so we’ll see how that goes. Tomorrow, then.

  1. When you don’t have a plan, everything goes as planned.

    There’s a crucial line in the movie “Parasite” that says much the same thing.

    Get John out walking with you guys! Seriously, start at 50 yards, then 100, then 200, etc., until he’s doing a whole kilometer, then 2, then 4… I bet that would turn his health around in many respects. Nothing like a good walk.

    Enchiladas look good. Wings look thoroughly sauced, but I can imagine they taste pretty damn good as long as you eat them while they’re still crunchy.

    Good luck with your teenybopper.

  2. Thanks for the review link; I know I’d read it before, but enough time has passed that it felt like the first time again.

    John’s wings used to be a weekly ritual for me before he moved to the far side of town. I didn’t get a taste of this batch, but the girls were crazy about them.

    Lunch went well, thanks! We might be moving into one of those mutually beneficial relationships you talk about in the movie review.
