The Sunday that Sleeps

I have been in bed and on the couch all day. I did clean, My kitchen is somewhat in order, along with my dirty clothes in my laundry. I have not been feeling up to doing anything.

Last night we went to Rocking Rodeo, Saturdays are free before 10p, with $1 single wells and $1.50 domestic longnecks. Country dancing is always fun, love to get around the dance floor.

After that we left to go to Crossroads where karaoke was happening and people tend to loose their inhibitions and get up to sing. Now I enjoy this, there is one guy normally there that does "New York, New York" and just has fun with it, I love seeing that someone can understand the true essence of karaoke and have fun no matter what. To those people that think you have to have this rock star voice, if you just have fun and entertain a crowd, it works much better. There are some that are good, there are some that are entertaining, but if you go to the right one, no one should criticize you for having fun.

Now also I did get out tonight and get all dressed up for my cousin's wedding. And just to put a little love in here, to Mark and Amelia, you both looked great and hope that all your dreams become reality together. Mark, thank you for always being a great friend and cousin. Amelia, welcome to the family, I hope you don't think my whole family is weird like I am, most of them are normal. And to the both of you, update your Facebook, you are married now.

Anyways, they decided to use the Wildwood Inn here in Denton, the place has a great feel to it, quaint, lovely, great service by the staff. You can have brunch there on Sunday if you are looking for something different and want a good meal, dress nice though, it is a little more upscale than most of the places I review. I am looking to go sometime just to have a different experience there.

So my weekend started with a good note and ended with good times with family, a man can't ask for much more.

And on that note, remember to tip your waitstaff and bartenders, they are working and sweating for you, so show some love.

I Finally Found My Way

Ok kids, here it is, My day has been riddled with interesting things, first off, the blog title has a reason, the lead singer and bassist of KISS is now married, that's right, Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed tied the knot this weekend. I am a little proud and know that for people that are "dating" and it seems like they will never commit, this is your hopeful story. 

On to the real reason we are here, RT's has recently introduced a new menu, Trey has outdone himself. I know this is hard to believe, but, the new menu items are interesting and fitting. First off, the fried olives are something that is heaven in your mouth, the salty mix with bleu cheese (not misspelled) stuffed olives have a great texture and flavor, they are a little bit interesting at first, but once you figure out what you are tasting, it is a great little appetizer that will make you come back for more. Then there is the the mini corn dogs and the Philly cheese steak sandwich, these are mouth watering awesomeness, my friend had the Philly and had a pudding grin throughout the whole thing. I had the mini corn dogs, they are a great mixture of sweet salty goodness, billed as an appetizer, this can be a meal for those that just want a little something. There are also now flavored popcorn and other interesting items that will make you think twice about ordering the standard fare here. 

We then headed to Lewisville, I know, not Denton, yet I am still about the area, they need love too. There we were at Vitty's where I was able to relax outside during this wonderful weather. DJ Paul Andrews was there hosting a party outside on the patio, fun was being had, all the adults could have fun while the kids could run around and feel apart of the experience. Jordyn, Cliff, Russ, April and the rest of the staff will take care of you if you want to book a party on the patio. They will make your experience a good one. When you are looking for a place to host a party, family get together, or just friends that have been looking for a place to meet and reconnect, this is it. 

Later I went to Hooligans, yes again, yet had a new experience with the staff. They do make you feel at home here, when you feel like no bar will take you in, stop by and they will take you in as a regular from the first day. Tye (sorry if I spelled that wrong), Jordan and the rest of the waitstaff are wonderful and have ideas and suggestions that will make you want to sing the theme to Cheers when you are there, you feel like everyone knows your name.They always have made my experience there a good one and made me feel comfortable.

A great night was had by all and I thank all my servers and bartenders, and remember that tips are the BEST way to thank them.

School's Back from Summer!

Sorry, had to change it around a little. For all you Dentonites out there, there are some great places to go and things to do still, even on the weekend. I know that there are times that you get bored and tired of the same old routine, here are a list of interesting things you can do:

1. Check Midway Mart and find out how many different craft beers there are and try a new one out.. 
2. Go to Beth Marie's and make a new flavor out of what they currently have. 
3. Try the Guiness Ice Cream at The Abbey Inn
4. On Wednesdays, try to see if you can out sing and perform at Andy's with karaoke, on the main stage
5. Check out Metzler's on Londonderry for good Barbeque. 
6. Go to Riprocks and count how many cell phones there are on the wall. 
7. Check out RT's and see if you can find out the exact length of the bar. If you want an extra challenge, see if you can figure out the area. Plus, get some lunch there. Great food.
8. Find out which bar has the smallest bar. (I think I know this one)
9. Try one of the Taquillarias here in town.
10. See if you can get a message up on one of the Frenchy's Trucks.
11. Find out about the Morrison's Corn-Kits sign history. 
12.  Count how many businesses start and shut down in the Golden Triangle Mall 

This should give all you guys some extra things to think about this year and just some interesting tidbits about Denton, TX. And good luck to all the students, new and returning.

Ah, My Public... House

Last night I went out to Public House, now if you are looking for a place to have some fun, that is it. Now Public House has more of a younger crowd, but you can still have some fun. With the outside deck and karaoke on Tuesdays and big screen TV's to watch most sporting events, you can still sit back in one of the booths and watch the fun. They have some good food as well and cheap drinks if you stick with well drinks.
If you want a little bit of different fun, head out there and enjoy.
