road trip

here is my point right off the bat is that a baseball analogy or a flying rodent analogy? wait. am i using the word "analogy" correctly? "reference". i probably should've used "reference". or maybe "allusion".-- over the top, small town friendliness isn't charming when you are not a small town.

i mean if you're a truck stop in, oh say, sinclair, wyoming then yes, you should be shifty and crazy and desperate for human contact. i expect- nay, demand- it.

but if you're a chili's style restaurant in denver, then why so chipper? i've obviously been in a car for seven hours, consuming nothing but diet coke and wheat thins and all i want is a fajita pita and the chance to stare into space and blend into the busy background. i do not want you to make guacamole LIVE!, i don't want you to bring the manager over to my table to say hello, i don't care about the time you spent as a teacher in iraq and i don't even really want a free brownie sundae.




denver's a fine town though.

also, i want to give a shout out to my new friends in sinclair...
