How Not to Spend Valentine's Day


So, you're trying to take a girl out for a romantic evening in Akron, OH, huh? Well, Valentine's Day falls on a Sunday, and Sunday is for the Lord, so that might be a problem. Well, Red Fox Bar and Grille is open...sort of. If your honey has her ID stolen, she's not gonna be able to drink. Not to worry! The waitress says the cook doesn't come into work, but she can turn on the fryer and make you "Burgers or anything fried." Oh..your date's a vegetarian? Well, that's ok. The waitress will go out back and "see if she can find any vegetables in the ice box she can fry up". As you ponder the five year old waiting for his birthday party in the pool hall, when there IS a McDonald's playplace two steps away, the waitress will no doubt return, her venture proving fruitless. Hm. Ok...well, there's a Mexican restaurant across the street! El Churro-it looks like a cross between an El Azteca and a giant clown convention. But hey, they have $2 margaritas! Your date will like that!...Except it's Sunday...and Sunday is for the Lord...and they can't sell alcohol. Hm...Well, I know this seems like a frustrating Valentine's Day, but there ARE endless chips and salsa and who knows? You may just get yourself a balloon animal!

Mandatory mood-lighting will be created when you blow a fuse trying to plug in two heaters at once on the second floor.

"Hm, there's the other half of the bath"~C and I explore our surroundings.
