I actually don't love steak that much... But Macdoe? The burgers are pretty meh.
They are high quality and healthy meals. :wrong:
I legit like the breakfast. It's cheap and very consistent food and not as bad for you as what you'll get at many real restaurants, but the regular cheese burgers and whatnot are certainly low on the totem pole, even in just the fast food realm. Wendy's burgers, for example, are actually pretty good and very "real" tasting by comparison.

What are you doing out there? It's a :neat: city with tons of options.
Going with a few friends. Mostly gonna do:

Petersen Automotive Museum
Porsche Experience Center
Pacific Coast Highway

And of course hit some other places in between. Want to go to this nice pasta place called Uovo. Also, In-N-Out.

I’m just excited since I’ve never been to the Best coast.

Nice. Griffith Park at sunset is pretty neat. Manhattan and Hermosa beaches are favorites of mine, Santa Monica is also nice. Many fun roads if you're into driving some. Hit me up if you have any questions, I've spent a ton of time out there. It's a 5/7 place but be wary of when you move around, traffic and traveling across the city too much in it can ruin it/take all of your time if you don't plan accordingly.

Also, going on a trip with friends you have relationships with? :notsure:

Sounds like a pointless timesuck that will only take away from career goalz.

I spent way too much time looking at horse trailers last night. Why? :iono: we were watching a Canadian show that revolves around horses and I was intrigued.

Maybe. I mean, I'm not going to say some sort of recession isn't in the cards... they happen every few years so history indicates it'll happen. But we've weathered all of the other ones... I mean, shit happens, you do the best you can, whatever. No reason to stress about it nonstop. Put some money in savings and carry on.

Just saying that the people most vocal about how the economy is going to shit are the ones blowing the most amount of cash.

I think the economy is fine. Petering off a pretty radical growth period but IMO not exactly in danger of collapse right now.

Nah, it's legit Seattle weather in NJ right now - been nothing but clouds and rain for the last 30+ days. Killing me.

And car sales kills your already dead soul twice. It's slow this month. September's traditionally been a slow month for me, but this will be 2 weeks without pay. :|
:dat: weather this summer has been rather shit. I think there have only been like 8 pizza rides in total because they keep getting rained out.
