Well, my body woke me up at 4:11 today. At least I made 4:20AM!

Today I plan to get some real relax time in, I have been grinding for most of a month. The sun deck is calling me! (just need it to rise!)

Considering a trip south to watch some drag racing, also want to get the dogs out on trail.

What is everyone planning on this glourious Saturday?

BTW, we need a daily tag...

So the pho is great obviously. And they use real beef bones etc. My favorite is just a large with double tendon and it's always perfect. I usually have to take a nap after.

But to the point their chicken nuggets are just incredible. It sounds odd but when I saw nuggets on a pho place menu I just had to investigate, this must be a joke.

By far the best nuggets I've ever had and it's no stretch. It's a guilty pleasure now. The sauces are just ok but fit. I'd recommend the 18 piece if you're eating with 3 or more people or you're a chicken nugget aficionado. You will end up eating them all. I think it was a smart move on their part because of how much bar traffic Carytown gets and you might be traveling with picky eaters. But they're so good regardless idk.

Just a head's up for everyone: If you are looking to buy tickets for the Squirrels at their new stadium, GoTickets is NOT it. I'm usually pretty savvy, but I was expecting a new site because of the new park. The site I clicked on to buy tickets showed the layout of the new stadium and said that they work with MLB, etc. I was also not surprised by higher ticket prices, because we live in an era of greed. Turns out that GoTickets is a ticket "reseller," I got charged double what the actual CarMax Park venue charges - and all sales are final.

Just trying to help others not make the same mistake, mainly I'm just pissed at myself for falling for an easy scam. Still going to the game, just got some expensive seats.

Go Squirrels!

Odie's first cover-up?

Where in Richmond could someone acquire a large potato sack? Any restaurant supply stores that would have sacks they don't need? Or maybe a place I could get dome burlap to make one myself?

EDIT: Rostovs was the answer, its perfect. If any of you other peasants are looking for proper Renn Faire attire, look no further than your local bean merchant.

I am aware of the RVA community fridges. But wondering if there are any in Henrico/ Hanover/Chesterfield or a directory for those?

does anyone know of any place showing it locally. I thought bowtie was a cinemark but I can't buy advanced tickets from the cinemark website.

And if we don't does anyone have any interested in helping getting a theater to play it?

I really want to see the last act in theaters.
