Birthday Deluxe
24 Feb
Hey Rhett,
As a Facebook friend and former work acquaintance, you may or may not know that today was my birthday. In honour of this momentous occasion, I decided to take the day off and bask in the glory of my 29th year.
I’d like to tell you that I slept in, but since I wanted to borrow Tara’s car for the day I had to drop her off at work for 8:30am. On my way home, I decided to take Edmonton Trail rather than Center Street — the lane reversal nonsense stresses me out. On my way past my former digs, I decided that a nice breakfast at Diner Deluxe would be just the thing for a birthday celebration.
I went in and grabbed a table for one and a copy of FFWD Weekly before ordering a cup of coffee and a Fried Egg Sandwich with Chorizo Sausage. I was excited to see this on the menu, because it’s not offered on weekends, when I’m most frequently there. It was massive and delicious. By the time I was done, I was painfully full.
It was so much food that I didn’t eat again until Tara took me out to dinner at 7:30pm. I know it’s not technically a lunch, but it’s all I’ve got for you today.
I hope you’re not too disappointed,
Brendan
