Road construction steered me away from my beloved Culver's (a Wisconsin chain) and towards Wendy's, so I decided to try it. It is good to confirm once in a while that you still hate the things you used to hate; in this case, most fast food. I fed my burger and fries to the dogs. The lemonade was fine though I suppose.
I played a couple of games of cribbage with my dad, ate some key lime pie, and we talked about our favorite movies and shows. For him, it's Dumb and Dumber because he laughed really hard all the way through. He and I really enjoyed "Waterworld" because we had an amazing theater experience; the doors of the theater blew open in a storm, lightning and wind and rain! Right during a scene when the characters were deep underwater. We also mentioned Dances with Wolves, the Matrix, and Good Will Hunting. The Bourne Identity was great, but only the first one, not the sequels. He loved 2001 a Space Odyssey.
He said he enjoyed the show "The Tudors," which I haven't heard much about, and so I said "maybe I'll check that out." My dad paused and dithered for a second before saying "Well, I suppose you're old enough for adult content." (crying laughing emoji!) Yes dad, I'm middle aged now.
My left ear is hurting badly again. I expect this visit to be exhausting because all the children will be here, and it's not warm enough to hang out outside.
