And I got to use the last of the points I earned when I set up my order-ahead account the other day, so the burger (which was both tasty and filling) was only a couple of bucks. I still think this place is trying to do <i>way<\/i> too much to turn a profit in a busy midtown area, but if you order ahead and go in at the arranged time, it&#8217;s actually a lot better than a lot of the other nearby choices.<\/p>\n<p>It has the McDonald&#8217;s across the street beat, but then again, I haven&#8217;t been inside McDonald&#8217;s in two or three years now.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s about it, as far as today goes. Some good news at work, as far as the photo research goes, since our production department has an account with a stock photo site, and any images I can find there won&#8217;t cost us anything. And I started sending copies of the actual manuscript out for review, so I think the project is now well in hand.<\/p>\n<p>Looking forward to the weekend. Nothing planned, not even my regular Sunday writing group, which is kind of hiatus for awhile. I&#8217;m again going to try to get caught up on <i>Kaleidotrope<\/i> slush &#8212; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kaleidotrope.net\/?p=42\">issue #10 is available for pre-order<\/a>, by the way, and can ship in about a week &#8212; and do some writing of my own. Maybe watch a movie, get caught up on some TV. What&#8217;s that new show? <i>!@#$% My Outsourced Dad&#8217;s Generation Says to Hawaii 5-Lonestar<\/i>?
