Going against the tide on Yelp

Looking for an upscale place to eat in Brunswick Maine we went to the usually reliable Yelp for suggestions. We found one in particular that seemed,to quote one review "spectacular".

Eager for the experience, we tried to get reservations the last time we were in town, but failed.  We were so pleased that this time there was an opening early Saturday night.

It was all down hill from there.

To distill the experience: the only thing I liked was the water. It was so bad, we stopped at a fish & chips shack on the way home to get some real food.

A Holiday on Thursday.

July Fourth is one of the holidays associated with the date that didn't suffer the modern Modayization. It's falling on Thursday this year presented a problem. Three days on, a day off and then back to work for one day doesn't feel right.

And it's summer here in New England. It's in the 90's with humidity that has a assumed a physical presence.

Not good work weather.

Who am I kidding. I work in an air conditioned office. I despise the out of doors.

It's just being home and not answering to what used to be a clock, (Now a Nexus7)

What I am building up to is I took the day off. Four straight days. I like that idea. Reality bites in that I will only have one day off next week.  Karma or Ying Yang? Either way, it all comes out even in the end.

Or it doesn't.
