The ambiance-riddled The Mad Greek in Baker, CA, where you can also see The World's Tallest Thermometer and get Alien Jerky.

I just remembered that going for lottery tickets always, legally, morally, includes a stop at The Mad Greek.

I didn’t actually want to do this, but I also can’t stop having nature’s most perfect ideas!!

I received two freelance paychecks by total surprise today, so I’m just going to be grateful, keep my head down, and maybe drive to California to buy a lottery ticket.

One day I rewatched that and then put on BRINGING OUT THE DEAD and just marveled at the dude in almost a fugue state afterward.

Almost through season 3, and it's been great (so to speak...) timing.

“Have you considered that it was just a dream?”

Deanna, girl I love you but it’s never been “just a dream” with this crew of main characters and you know it.
