Complaintless

Dave!"GET BACK HERE, TACO BOY!"

I'm pretty sure I was already kinda awake, but it was those words reverberating through the hallway of my hotel after hearing a door slam that finally managed to really wake me up.

Kids, right?

Or, in this case, more like parents not minding their kids at 5:30am.

Not the best way to start my day, but it did start my imagination running as to how some kid would end up with "Taco Boy" as a nickname. At least I hope it's a nickname.

After that minor incident, I really have no complaints about my day. None. Checkout at the hotel was painless. The shuttle to the airport was on time. The people at the Sixt desk were awesome. My rental car ended up being a Prius that I really enjoy driving. The trip down to my job site was completely uneventful. The day's work started early and went well. I had Dr. Pepper, Pretzels, and GIANT Kit-Kat for lunch. A nice breeze took the edge off the afternoon heat. I caught up on my emails. I had a terrific dinner with a friend from work. Now I'm laying in bed listening to cicadas (or some other noisy bugs) screech into the night.

Well, okay, I really could do without the screeching bugs, but it sure beats screeching kids at 5:30 in the morning, so there's that.

And now I just don't know what to do with myself since I have nothing to complain about.

A few more days like this and I may have to give up blogging.

   
Oh... speaking of kids... this video was shared on Facebook by Certifiable Princess and is must-watch material...

Just one more good thing to come out of my day.

And another...

Dayamn! These videos are like popcorn. You just can't stop reaching for another handful.

Except I have an early call to work, so no more for me.

    “Taco Boy” is actually the young sidekick of popular crime fighter “Captain Quesadilla.” They may have been fighting their nemesis, the notorious El Hamburguesa.

    Not really much to do with your post, but now I really feel like have lunch down at Taco Boy on Folly Beach in South Carolina. That joint is awesome! (And they do three kinds of vegetarian taco…avocado tempura, veggie black bean and portobello mushroom).

    Nothing better than an ice-cold beer, shot of tequila and great Taco Boy food after a day on the beach.

    PS – If your travels ever take you near Charleston, SC you have to visit Folly Beach. And let me know. I’m down there semi-often.

    In all of my years of travel, I had never heard of Sixt for car rental before. And they’ve been around since 1912?? That just blows my mind. Thanks for linking to the site. Bookmarked in my Travels folder.

  4. Me things Bad Monkey needs his own sidekick… “Taco Boy”!
