Sunday, an interesting day.

Today at Hooters the following happened: there was a man with a stuffed owl who wore a bears jersey and cowboys hat, multiple families with small children, a group of guys who ordered wings and the chef just flipped them over instead of making new ones, a man with a karate headband, a double stacked high chair, a woman feeding a baby chili, a man with a blue tooth who was sweating and eating everything in sight and kept spilling on his shirt, the guys with the burnt wings bought soco lime shots for the girls behind them, a waitress with a bandaid on her butt, Tebow got hit in the head with a football, the Bears ref called St. Louis St Louie, a man doing shots of bailey’s.

“Sherman made the terrible discovery that men make about their fathers sooner or later… that the man before him was not an aging father but a boy, a boy much like himself, a boy who grew up and had a child of his own and, as best he could, out of a sense of duty and, perhaps love, adopted a role called Being a Father so that his child would have something mythical and infinitely important: a Protector, who would keep a lid on all the chaotic and catastrophic possibilities of life.”― Tom Wolfe, The Bonfire of the Vanities
