Long Play

Some days you wake up and all you can think about are enchiladas. Today was such a day, Diary. Three cheese, if you're curious. I like pretty much anything when it comes in threes. Perhaps this explains my penchant for the circus. Anyway, I took my usual seat at Marco's and found out right away that the salsa was in fifth gear. The trick here is just to ride it out, so I did. The extra glass of iced tea didn't hurt either. The food at Marco's is authentic, but the decor is a little curious. It's more Tex-Arkana really. The jukebox has Conway Twitty selections on it. Bold choice. It got me to think; when is too early to play the jukebox at a restaurant? Until tomorrow, Diary.
