9:00 am. Checkout. Start driving home. Hardees apparently has the best
biscuit breakfast sandwiches in existence.
I'm not a morning person, nor am I a breakfast person. It's my turn to
order. “Are you serving lunch?” If I have to eat this early, it's got to
be a cheeseburger.
“No. Breakfast only.”
“Don't worry,” said Gregory. “I'll take you to a Sonic after this. Here, take my
keys,” he said, handing me the fob for the car. “Check the GPS for the closest Sonic.” I
take the fob, and head out to the car.
The closest Sonic appeared to be five miles south of the Hardees we were
in. But that's five miles further south than we wanted to be. I started
looking for Sonics more-or-less on our way home, and was about give up
when Gregory appeared.
“Kemo sabe,” he said. “There's a Sonic on the other side of this
Hardees.”
“Oh.”
Yeah, it was teh early.

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
