Grilled cheese croissant breakfast, visiting downtown dallas, cute little denton, mexican restaurant, the most disappointing vegetable tortas ever [Sat 16]

 I write this exactly 10 days after the day, as I write 4 weeks worth of journal posts.

Had grilled cheese croissant for breakfast, plus fruits. Hung out with folks, socialized, called home and gave them stats, and just chilled around for the earlier part of the day. Lunch was of fried rice that had been hanging around for a while.

Bhauju wanted us to show downtown dallas and the fun stuff that could be done there, so we took a convoy there. ON the way sb and I talked about business in America, how this country is really the best place people like us could be, and the potential for marriage supply businesses in here. And how canada is just a pale comparison of this place. A cold terrible place with better healthcare, hey gotta give them the credit.

Parked at this weird street that looked super sketch nobody looked energetic, we were 15 minutes away from parking being free so we just waited it out talking and not doing much. After that we walked downtown to AT&T plaza, saw the massive screen and the pumpkin patch, the protesters from PETA shouting at folks to go vegan and avoid animal products. That made me feel great because texas is such a weird conservative place that just knowing there was at least a few hundred peta supporters made me feel safer.

From there we went to this park where the lights on this public display corresponded to where in the tunnel you were and how fast you were walking. We also saw this massive eyeball right in downtown. Apparently not many people live on dallas downtown but how's that a surprise, if there were more grocery stores and bars and restaurants I wouldn't mind living but I imagine it's a chicken-and-egg problem.

Tired of downtown dallas, we drove to this point to see the bridge and a scenic view of the downtown skyline, from where we went to Denton, which is a very cute historic downtown that everybody seems to hang out at. Well we couldn't find any place to get food there that'd accommodate everybody's requirements, so we chilled around the square and appreciated what a bizarre historical setting we were at, in Dallas of all places, and drove to this cute little mexican restaurant with a fuckton of orders for the whole team. I wanted vegetable torta, and got that. Waited for like 30 minutes while the groom's brother and (new) wife tried to force him to hug and be more loving towards them.

Took the food home and ate, it was the most disappointing torta I've ever had, they basically made a meaty torta, but without the meat, maaan what a sad little piece of bread I ate for dinner. Pathetic, honestly.
