Thought for the day..

...as I get ready to start on an adult beverage...
"Eat at a local restaurant tonight. Get the cream sauce. Have a cold pint at 4 o’clock in a mostly empty bar. Go somewhere you’ve never been. Listen to someone you think may have nothing in common with you. Order the steak rare. Eat an oyster. Have a negroni. Have two. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends. Check in on yourself. Enjoy the ride."

Met him in Oz. You can tell he's a writer of the Kerouac and Thompson school from the quote here. He struck me as a pretty honest guy. (Much more honest than his company at least.)

Good thoughts. And the joy of having kids notwithstanding, I look forward to the time and freedom to go out easily to new places and hang out for a while.

Drug use is kinda high in the restaurant world. It's not exactly a desk job.
