I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN........

During our trip down here, we stopped at a McDonald's that had no hamburgers. We stopped at a Mexican restaurant that had Margarhitas, but couldn't make me a martini. I should have known.........Our hotel had no list of local restaurants, and no list of shows on the available HBO.

When we arrived in Florida, I stopped at a gas station that had no gas. I should have known, something is different about this visit to the state of our legal residence. It's cold. It's not supposed to be cold.

We went to a thrift store and found the exact little wicker table and chair set we've been looking for. The table had a tag on it that said "not for sale." I should have known. Alas, the thrift store provided us with a free loaf of hard french bread. What the.........?

It's bizarre, I tell ya, but there are signs that the world as we know it is returning.
The grocery stores have food, the beaches have sand, and the churches are filled with sinners.
And...........the sun is shining today. Mid 70's.
Sit back, relax, and welcome to my world.
