The weather is miserable & rainy today, as it was all week.
I had lunch at Peter Pan Diner on Oakland Park Blvd. & Dixie Hwy. This is the first time I’ve been there & I’ll definitely be going back. It’s good, cheap, and fast even though it was jammed (which is probably why it was jammed). It’s a good place to know, since it’s open 24 hours a day. Next I went to Bed Bath & Beyond to use the gift card my mom & her friends gave me. I only spent $20 on some stuf for my kitchen and I still have $20 left on the $40 gift card. “5-Point” is definitely the intersection from hell. This is where NE 26th Ave, Dixie Hwy, and Wilton Drive intersect and it’s very confusing. When travelling on NE 26th Ave, if you’re in the right lane you must turn north to Dixie Hwy, in the left lane, you must turn south on either Dixie Hwy or Wilton Drive, and in the center lane you can either travel straight on NE 26th Ave (as I wanted to do) or turn south on Wilton Drive. It takes a bit of advance planning, since NE 26th Ave widens to 3 lanes shortly before the intersection. There’s always someone in the wrong lane attempting to get into the proper lane when it’s already too late. I had a bit of a scare in the Publix parking lot. As I was returning to my car, I saw a stray shopping cart heading towards my 2-week-old 2003 Corolla. Luckily (at least for me), it hit the car next to mine, which, thankfully, didn’t have even a scratch from the shopping cart.
