In Memphis, Tenn., with my family today. Staying at the Marriott downtown. It's like a mini vacation for me. I have my own room. I can come and go as I please. I can get room service. I like having the freedom to dirty up every towel in the place and leave the TV on and all lights on when I leave. Even though I'm a grown up and can do all these things in my own home where I have a mortgage and pay bills, it's these simple things I still do enjoy.
I took advantage of the hotel's workout facilities for my workout today. I was short on time, so I spent about 15 minutes on the elliptical trainer while facing out the window, where I watched 3 Gen Y guys each smoke their own blunt joints. Nice. Then I ran for about 15 minutes on the treadmill. Yep, that's enough for me tonight, I figured.
We're all going to dinner at Itta Bena's above BB King's on Beale Street tonight. Should be another fine time with my folks. Gotta be more entertaining than Toad Suck Daze in Conway, Ark., where we all converged last night. Somehow, all of us escaped without eating a funnel cake or gator on a stick.
(P.S. I did not win the lottery.)
