I’m going to start off this post with a link to a post on Loving My Memphis: Just Say No to Boring Dates<\/a>. They suggest a date for Saturday or Sunday afternoon, and absolutely nailed it. Stop 1 is Hung Over Like a Bear brunch at the Blind Bear. They point out that there are couches so you can have an intimate setting for two if you don’t want to sit at the bar, and that “If you go on Sunday bartender Brad Wilson is awesome!” Yes! D-RANKS with B-RAD! I won’t reveal Stops 2 and 3 so you’ll be encouraged to click through and read the entire article, but let’s just say I agree with them. I really like the idea of a Sunday afternoon date. So much more laid-back and less pressure than Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Shout-out to my apartment community Number 10 Main! They gave me a free deep bathroom cleaning for renewing my lease. The cleaning happened today and the place looks amazing! Cleaner than it has ever been!<\/p>\n

Off to the Goose for a beer. Good night!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
