Open All Night

I will be the first to admit that I have been lax in my blog writing. One of the things I did want to detail is my dining out. I am within a week now of having been on the road for a year straight. One byproduct of that is the fact that I have thus eaten out for approximately 98.7% of my meals in the last year. An ancillary byproduct is devastated hotel room commodes all over the metropolitan Milwaukee area.

I recently changed hotels just to get to a new “area.” Plus, I hated that place (subject for another blog). I had gotten stagnant, going to the same three or four restaurants. Well, what happened, but I moved and found new places to frequent. Despite my stuffy nose, the beautiful weather inspired me to find somewhere new tonight. I made a beeline for a place I have been passing every day. It looked like a western saloon and had me fawning over a gargantuan piece of cow. Instead I show up and find out it is a taco place! I went it to look at the menu and it was even more pretentious than I anticipated. Tapas? Really? So I drove around some more. And then some more. I ended up back at the same place I have been eating at every day seemingly. There I got to have a non-stop runny nose, have people sit on both sides of me at the bar to smoke, and naturally proceed to stain my shirt.

So, I did the only natural thing after. I grabbed a Klondike bar and returned to my hotel room.
