the end of the day

when does alright mexican food become good mexican food?
when the company you keep at the table is expert,
and the check is taken care of.
uh-huh.
whenever there are sports happening on televison,
and those sports are site-specifically new england team-based-
since that's where i am, and where the superfans are superpsyched-
ALL the jock-holes and drunktards go to the big-screen sports bars,
and yell at the images as if they are capable of affecting the outcome
solely based on inebriation and exclamation via inverse broadcasting.
i dunno.
it seems incredibly F*ing dumb to me,
but, that makes it reaaallllly easy to avoid all of that.
just don't go to those places, right?
i wouldn't anyway, even if there wasn't a game on.
obviously.
but,
then again,
thinking i would be safe in a south-of-the-border-style establishment
was just wishful thinking and that's never a good thing to count on.
yeah, that's the truth.
mmhmm.
there was still one lonely weirdie at the mexico spot doing his damnedest
to play an important role in barside restaurant culture.
yep.
go team, rah rah rah.
huh?
sure.
just imagine my pom-poms a-rustlin' right along with you, neighbors.
EW.
anyway,
i took down a sizzling plateful of fajitas,
(with extra tortillas, because i know people, y'feel me?)
and that helped soothe the subarctic A*-holery of a sh!t-salad saturday
in the frostbitingly b!tch-slapping heat-sapping tattzapping white mountains.
check the teleport:

mmmmhmmmmm.
a little poblano in my bellyhole,
and i'm a smirky jerk for an hour or two.
i don't plan on there being much radness throughout the course of a day,
but i do plan on being rad throughout the courses of a meal.
i mean,
i'll eat all the vegetables,
and i'll drink all the seltzer,
and i'll do it so fast, and so hard.
i have a style, y'all, and a system.
twice as much in half the time,
twice as dope, and four times as ugly.
i needed a little warmth, spicy and otherwise, after another 'nother day
of weak-sauce last-minute cancellations on my schedule.
that sucks so hard,
even when the appointments themselves also suck so hard.
movie checks don't come for free, kids,
and earning 'em is hard when there's no doo-doo butter to spread.
this is the way it is around here right now.
hot food notwithstanding,
it's tough and it's trying and it's all really happening.
that's the whole point;
never quiet, never soft.....
