You know there are a lot of things that "happen" to me whenever I get back down to Florida. I seem to morph, just a bit, back into familiar habits.
For instance, at home the radio that Lana provides is set on rock. Usually classic rock, but really it's whatever plays the most music.
Here? I LOVE the country station. With all those melodic twangs that the DJs have, the redneck stories.......and they talk about my Buc's. What's not to love?!?!
I've also taken to wearing shoes more in THE Valley. In fact, you could almost say my feet have become "tender".
Here? Yeah, I slipped my damned shoes off standing outside the airport waiting for my ride. Hell, yesterday I had to go back out to the car to get them, cause I walked right up to the building barefoot. Haven't done THAT in a long time.
But the biggest change is the way I eat. Now, I love me some breakfast. Always have. Hell, I'll eat breakfast for supper most anytime. And I can put the food away. But lately, I haven't been eating so much.
Yesterday. I visited some place that I have missed more than I realized over the past couple of years. Yesterday, for lunch, I went to The Waffle House. We don't have those up north, and let me tell you folks, Waffle House is THE MASTER at breakfast. I ordered scrambled eggs, hashbrowns covered and capped, sausage, raisin toast and a waffle. I. Ate. Ever. Bite. And then wanted more!!!!!
Oh, I don't care what the Denny's and Perkins' or even the Bob Evans' say, no one does breakfast like The Waffle House.
Today? Today I'm on the hunt for a blackened grouper sandwich. I know just the place. It's down from my favorite beach, right on the water. I'm gonna go put my feet in the sand, get a little sun and end my free time watchin' the dolphins play while I savor my favorite food in life.
Of course, I'll be sittin' there barefoot listening to some country music while I munch. Isn't that how EVERYONE does it?!?!
