Dinner in a gas station

This is where I am eating dinner tonight. Inside a Shamrock gas station in Kansas City. According to the June 09 issue of Men's Health magazine, and my rep G, this is one of 13 places to eat before you die. Oklahoma Joe's Barbecue. In a gas station. Must be good…we're in a line a mile long. I'll let you know later. I'm getting the beef brisket and the "house specialty" pulled pork. And G says the French fries are awesome. Gas station brisket…mmmmm.

My train

The station was full of screaming children. I was grateful I bumped to business class. Until two of the little banshees came into business class with their mom. One broke his tray table before we left the station. God help me.

M talks in his sleep

It typically starts with some weird question, as it did tonight. I just try to answer what I think he wants to hear, no matter how ridiculous. It keeps him calmer that way.

Diet update

This morning I got on the scale for my weekly torture. I was simultaneously disappointed and breathing a sigh of relief. No change.
