A Wild Book Appears!

     I slept while sitting next to someone I've known for only a few minutes. Exhausted from the previous day I notified AAA to come tow me to a larger town. I did this to have more resources to fix the car as well as having something to do during the day instead of letting it go to waste.

     The drive was a couple of hours but I only remember a few minutes of it. After unloading the car I backed it into a spot. Much more inconspicuous compared with the previous spot.

     I called home and spoke with my Mom for a bit because I had a solid 24hrs to burn. I decided going to a local food joint for breakfast wouldn't hurt the bank, so I did just that. Sunny Side Up it was called and the accents around this part are not as pronounced. The bus boy was wearing cowboy boots while working. I guess they don't believe in non slip shoes at that place.

     Anyway I checked out the locak park that had a vetran memorial. I walked around the city and most of the shops were closed up. Luckily the public library opened at one, so I could at least burn a couple of hours there. It's been a while. Sn interesting note is that when the doors opened the place was flooded with homeless individials scrambling for a computer. The new standard of living, right?

     I read a new book and got about 50 pages in before the build up led to spmething undesired. Time for the next one. Also, why was I never aware of National Geographic magazine collections? Where have I been. They have large volumes dating back to 1920.

     After reading for a bit longer I am going to part ways with the library and venture to a cinema. Hopefully that will be opened and I can catch a movie.

     I started reading "Caffeinated how our daily habit helps, hurts, snd hooks us" by Megan Carpenter. It has a hook introduction and it seems worth to check out if you're interested in reading an anthropological/journalism type of book.

     What to what to do.
