Knotts Scary Farm.

Not to be outdone, I am posting.

This past Thursday my company went to Knotts Berry Farms as our company outing. It was kind of to celebrate the second anniversary of our product. I've actually never been to a major adult amusement park ever. So, it was pretty fun. I think I purposely let myself not be scared. I maintained control.

Except for on split second when they started this free fall drop. That ish is pretty scary. But I managed to calm myself under control by breathing deeply. Sometimes I feel like I'm such a wet towel. Well, not really. Just, I felt kind of isolated and out of my element so I don't think I let myself go in those situations.

Nonetheless, it was still a fun day.

On Friday I got around to watching Hellboy 2. I really like Guerimo Del Toro... I might have spelled that wrong. But the monsters in most of his movies are great. I like the imagery and all that jazz is there. Definitely a entertaining movie if you like that stuff, but as a movie in and of itself it was pretty weak.

Before that, Moon & I went to dinner at this restaurant called Savannah Supper Club & Lounge. Predictably, it turns into a club at night. But, the sound proofing in that building was really good so we didn't notice until leaving and passing by that side of the restaurant.

Food was passable, not of one of the best places I've been too, but definitely good. I left a fifty dollar tip on a ninety dollar tab. Here I am making myself to sound super generous, but in reality they forgot to include the bottle of wine so I just put it in the tip.

Back to Knotts, so yes, it is Knotts of that fame. Need jam? Apparently it is America's oldest theme/amusement park or something. I was reading some of the history and it started as dinner entertainment for guests. Funny how things change.

But I heard in October they turn it into Knotts Scary Farm. People walk around, sneaking and scaring you. Awesome, I'm so going to that.

Oh, and this little blurb is for Ming. Maestro's was right next to Savannah, I think it was the steakhouse. Come back to this county of Orange, and we will eat well.

I think it was probably that... I just saw a logo as an M and didn't bother to check the spelling. Jerk!
