Got to spend the day with a close friend the other day. It was very fun and eventful. We spent most of it in a old timely area of my home state. I would post pictures if this were a photography blog and not a illustration blog. I want to use this place as inspo for a setting in a story one day.
We went into this one mom and pop shop that was 3 floors of just a bunch of thingamajigs all over the place. It was just a bunch of stuff that you would find in grandma’s house(models of entire fictitious towns, cookie bins that store random crap, and creepy doll babies). It was interesting…. I would definitely go back in. OOH, we also saw this Shadow the Hedgehog figurine where he was a duck!
We went to this restaurant where I ordered a Salmon burger…. It was good… but it was just a regularly piece of salmon slapped on two buns… I feel like they should just sell the salmon without the burger gimmick…. We then met this nice lady who told us a tale about a magical seasoning called Fish Peppers…. they have a lot of history that i won’t boor anybody with here…
Towards the end my friend wanted to buy me a gift! Thank you so much! She got me a copy of this GOATed manga called Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi! I’m a member of the Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi fanbase, which consists of 10 people. So this made me very happy.
Ultimately, it was a great day. I do feel bad though. I am so broke that I couldn’t spend a dime in all of these amazing local businesses. I felt so shameful walking out of their stores empty handed.
