A pro-Palestine rally shut down the I-40 bridge for several hours yesterday evening.

The DM has photos of the Lunar New Year bar crawl last night in South Main. The folks at Good Fortune Co. organized the crawl. The crawl actually lasts all month and participants can get a T-shirt for finishing.

Today is National Homemade Soup Day. I wonder if soup lover Butt Slut #1 has plans to celebrate.

It’s also Dump Your Significant Jerk Day. That way you won’t be shackled to them for Valentine’s.

I walked back to the Downtown core from Momma’s, “the diner & dive off 55,” at 3 this morning in the pouring rain. Next time I go, I wanna try their cheese curds. I’m really warming up to Momma’s as a weekend spot. It’s far enough removed that it doesn’t get the riff-raff some bars in the Downtown core get.

That rain was COLD though. I need an electric blanket. Still shivering hours later, probably because my clothes are still wet. Back tomorrow with more news.
