Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes have nothing to do with this writing, but the last time the page was this quiet I posted an apology titled "Cricket Sound" and I needed another ambient insect noise to illustrate the relative silence of my keyboard. I live in Florida, so mosquitoes it is!

It's been a wild few weeks with one crazy situation after another. Nothing bad, all good with some great mixed in, but crazy nonetheless.

No stories to tell... yet. I went to Atlanta this past weekend where I shared a burger at a place called Grub. It was excellent! Well, the food anyway. I'm not one for sports bar type joints, but I'll tolerate sports on the restaurant TVs because people watch sports and inevitably if I want to enjoy good food while travelling I have to go to places where people are which is unfortunate.

That to say that sports on the TVs is a non-issue. But I do take issue with establishments, especially those that I would honestly love to drag my wife and kids to at some point playing R rated(?) comedies like Scary Movie 17. Yes I realize there are only nine Scary Movie Movies, and no I didn't fact check that number or rating before writing it since I care so little about those movies that I won't bother looking it up. I do know it is the one with Charlie Sheen.

There was a woman seated in a booth next to our bar table with two small kids and a baby. She noticed the movie was playing and tried to distract her two self aware kids with toys while taking care of the baby. They were seated so that they were facing directly at the screen which was situated above the crowd on the opposing wall, there was no avoiding it.

Restaurants of the world, please note that if you have this type of content on your screens I will write more about that aspect of my dining experience than the actual meal (which, to be fair, was excellent).

Sorry for the silence. I'll try harder.
