Visited #Culvers for some quality Wisconsin burgers this evening.

I usually try to eat quite healthily so it's incredibly rare I go to any fast food place but fuck it, we're on holiday.

I have to say I'm very satisfied with the crispy chicken burger, crinkle fries, and root beer combo.

Is it weird that I'm actually kind of excited to visit a Walmart tomorrow? 😅

Maybe a bit of an eclectic mix, but here's a few:

- AURORA
- Death Cab for Cutie
- Duran Duran
- Teddy Thompson (supported by David Ford who is an absolute showman)
- Altered Images (the core demographic in the audience was bald middle-aged white guys 🤔)

V is watching something called The Weird and Wonderful World of Gumball. It sounds chaotic 😅

Can I please take the water quality home with us?

I've seen people say that getting attached to ChatGPT is like "believing the stripper really loves you", but that's not true. It's more like believing that the dryer personally composed that little jingle on a lonely sockless night just to win your affections.

I wish my stepmum would quit insisting I speak Spanish to random people I've only just met.

I do speak and understand it but it's pretty rusty. I understand what they're saying, but when I go to answer I'm like

"Uh...yo hablo un poquito" 🙃

My cat who died but got better is currently racing through the house with that plastic seal thing from a milk jug in his mouth.

There better be some pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving lunch on Thursday 🥧 Intolerances be damned.

Martin took this picture while we were passing through Spring Island earlier. It's so tranquil here.

Cruising through Georgia and not a peach in sight...yet. Mostly trees and water. It's quite relaxing.

Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle" is on the radio and I just scoffed most of a Butterfinger. Life feels good.

The Bible being expertly vague.
According to Leviticus in the Old Testament, "If a man lies with another man as he lies with a woman he should be stoned."

I'm uncertain if this is a prohibition of telling fibs to both men and women or an encouragement to get high before doing so.

Looking frazzled because I forgot to sync my watch with my phone and woke up at midnight thinking it was 5am, and took a shower.

Just fell back 'asleep' in my clothes after that. 😑

If we didn't already know we were in America, the telltale sign might well be the 'no guns' logo plastered to the door at the Cheesecake Factory.

Billboard on the i-95:

"Release your inner cowboy at Renegades" something or other.

Well, if you say so...

One wash with the soft water here and my hair is like a shimmering L'Oréal ad.

Finally got around to watching the Barbie movie on the airplane. It was actually really good 😊

Miami Airport arrivals - WTF? Everyone in taxis and cars losing their shit and honking their horns when nobody can even move 😑

Also our driver didn't bring a child booster seat as requested. Thankfully he's got a monster of an MPV.

Anyway, we made it.

We are en route to the US of A. Surreal going back after 15 years.
