The Glare of Disdain

I have found a new barber shop. Well, it's a hair place, run by the ubiquitous nice Asian ladies. Why I'm going back is that after I asked for an all over cut with the #1 guide, she made very sure I understood just how short this was going to be. I could also understand her despite her accent, which helps. Shave, trim the bear, and I'll look and feel more human.

We had gone out to make use of a Chili's coupon for free queso, and ended up being the first customers of the day. This had advantages and drawbacks. The skillet queso was great, but some of the chips had spent not quite enough time in the firer and were still soft and nearly translucent with oil that hadn't boiled out. When my fajitas came, the tortillas had the exact opposite problem. The top few on the stack had dried out and had become stiff. Not big problems, there were enough good chips for Kiri and me to devour the cheesey, tomatoy goodness, and our server quickly replaced my tortillas with fresher ones from deeper in the stack. I was making Kitchen Nightmares jokes as I dissected my food. One nice surprise was seeing [livejournal.com profile] collie13 at the restaurant. She just had time to say hi and give quick hugs, but nice seeing her again.

Enough excitement for the day.
