Morning

I like to get there early, before the place opens and the parking lot fills up. I like to cut my car off, but not all the way because I like to listen to sports talk out of Florida until the time is right. I like it best on rainy days when I can sit, cozy in my metal cocoon, waiting for my day to begin, for my new life to begin. On a perfect day, they will open the doors and spin the sigh around so that it reads OPEN instead of CLOSED just as the rain lets up a bit and the sports talk segment ends so that I can turn the key, hop out of the car and make it undercover without getting wet. I like to go inside and order a tuna and grits. A little slice of heaven to start the day off right.
