Next 505 Happy Hour Wednesday July 28th Fiorentino's Flight Deck @ the Lancaster Airport, Lititz
This Wednesday we're going to take a little drive up to the Lancaster Airport to visit Rob and Rose and the gang at Fiorentino's. They put in a new outside seating area last year that we need to inspect. Great food items of the Italian variety (bonus) and great bar food like Meatball Sliders (their homemade meatballs are amazing).
Plus we get to drive through Lititz and see what all the belly aching is over a little storm yesterday. $2M in damage? Cmon. I lost a potted plant and umbrella, sissies.
We'll be there 5:05 - ? Maybe we'll get all fired up and then see a movie at Penn Cinema to sober up and scare the kids working there.

Goals.
Everyone should have them. Your parents probably told you this, your guidance counselor did, your bosses, and a metric ass load of life coaching douchebags like Tony Robbins tell you this. And, honestly they are
correct. Having goals is a great thing, it motivates you and drives you.
At 41 I feel like I'm the ultimate slacker. I was always 99th percentile in intellectual type scoring throughout school. Especially in the under achieving department. Somewhere along the line I kind of never set goals for myself, officially. The only goal that I set was a very simple and vague one - to be happy.
Meanwhile I have witnessed my friends and peers set higher and more tangible goals such as a specific educational achievement or career choice. This I applaud. However I’ve also noticed friends who have much more Mid-West type goals of: I want to be married by 28, or I want to have a baby before I turn 30. Now while these goals seem wholesome and great for producing offspring, they also set up an insane timeline in a person’s head that cause them to make awful decisions. As that magical time deadline gets closer and the countdown clock is ringing in your ears kind of like that “go to commercial noise” from 24, these people tend to take the best option available at the time and run with it. Marrying the wrong person just to make babies or to not feel like a spinster. These now tend to be all the people I know who are 35-50 and completely miserable, btw. So... back to goals. I still have mine, to be happy and on most days I feel as if I’ve achieved this goal. If happiness means that I stay single and have lots of great friends, then that is where it takes me. If someday I meet the right person and that happiness leads to marriage, then that is great too. Drink up. Drive fast, take chances. evilpete lancaster505@gmail.com |
