Here we gooooooooo...a Stewart's root beer float and a suntan usher in SUMMER '07!!

EVERY summer, I say "I need to go to Stewart's"...and never go. It's just such a nostalgic Summer Classic. Well, this year, I've gone the VERY FIRST DAY of the season! All day i've YEARNED for a root beer float, and that's exactly what I ordered up from the friendly young lass...who somehow interpreted I also wanted onion rings. Likely my fault...I just say "yes" when I don't understand what someone says. She kindly took them back. The whole ordering process was a tad confusing...and why wouldn't it be? I mean, they don't even have prices on their menu board. What the hell? But they DO still serve you in your car! How EXCITING! I will absolutely go back and have some young thing saunter over with her order pad, soon attaching a tray to my car window. For the uninitiated, you have to put your headlights on for service. Unfortunately, the days of roller skating servers are over. It was fun, though, ordering that float and standing outside sipping it on a very muggy Friday night of Memorial Day Weekend. Very, yes, nostalgic. Very SUMMERY! I felt...well, NOT the age I am. Nothing new there. AND it was a sunny, 92-degree day...the first 90 day of the season...HOW perfectly timed! AND I tanned! Oh, boy, i'm excited about Summer '07's prospects! Fingers crossed...here we go!
