I’ve decided that sometimes it’s not convenient to work on the Howdygram on weekends because Sam’s here and we’re pretty much joined at the hip. This involves damn near everything from driving around in the country to taking naps together to hanging out in the kitchen to see what’s in the refrigerator. Basically, the only time we’re apart is when I’m making the bed or Sam decides to water our trees.
If you’re annoyed that I didn’t write a post over the weekend you have my deepest sympathy. Also, you might want to consider therapy.
This is a Howdygram love letter to
Saltgrass Steakhouse in Rowlett, Texas, which might be our favorite local restaurant. We love the food, we love the service, we love the decor, we love the menu, we love the parking lot and we even love that they give you a gigantic carafe of extra ice tea so you can drink until your kidneys float into the next county.
We only have one teeny tiny little criticism. Maybe someone on Saltgrass’ management team can explain how come the two cute hostesses standing in the front entrance who see us park in a handicapped spot and watch me walking in with a cane decide they need to lead us to a table that’s so far from the front door we’re practically eating lunch in Oklahoma. Keep in mind the doors have only been open for 15 minutes and THE ENTIRE RESTAURANT IS EMPTY except for a couple of servers folding napkins at the reception desk. Old people do NOT think this is funny. I’m just saying.
Tiger Woods didn’t win the Bridgestone Invitational yesterday. He actually finished in a tie for 37th place, a distinction that’s not worth a stamp to write home about. Tiger’s recently-fired caddie, however, did a whole lot better. In an amazing display of poetic justice,
Steve Williams (see right) carried the bag for Adam Scott, who finished FIRST at 17-under-par.
There was a
2.6-magnitude earthquake that shook the Dallas metro area yesterday. The epicenter was located six miles southwest of Dallas near the border of Irving and Grand Prairie (see the map below).
Early reports indicate that nobody noticed and nobody cared since this was roughly the same as slamming a car door. Thank y’all for reading this.
