Sunday doing nothing terribly useful

[dreamshark]

I got up at 8:30 to have breakfast with a woman I worked with at my last job. I'd picked the French Meadow Bakery, which does lovely breakfasts and is so big I figured it wouldn't be too hard to get a table. Imagine my surprise when I arrived at 9:30 and there was a line of a dozen people and not an empty table in sight! Fortunately Martha had gotten there about 15 minutes earlier before the place filled up and secured us a little table by the wall. We had a nice breakfast and catch-up session, then started feeling guilty occupying a table with a line of people still waiting and adjourned to my place to chat a little longer. It was fun. Since I can't seem to sleep late anymore, I'd been thinking it would be a nice idea to start doing weekend breakfast dates. I need to find someplace not so popular, though, at least for Sundays. I noticed that SunnySide Up, a few blocks away on Lyndale, was similarly crowded. Maybe one of the local coffee shops, like Anodyne or Java Jack's would be less frenetic.

Anybody have any suggestions for a nice breakfast spot in my neighborhood?

I've spent the rest of the day (so far) catching up on important things like blowing up the armory in the mercenary camp on Far Cry Island. Finally managed it, finishing up Mission #4. Escaping in the armored jeep wasn't going so well though - those things blow up like Ford Pintos at the slightest opportunity. So maybe it's time to take a Real Life Break.

It's sort of springlike outside. And remarkably not-dark, even though it's 5pm. Maybe I'll go for a walk. What a strange idea!
