Fine Italian Dining in Lexington at the city center on Main Street. It's good to be back.

I was off for the past week. Shannon the dude was holding down the fort, saw the fun show that you guys had in Somerset on Friday.

Good morning, dude. It's great to see you today. I was about to say, who's this guy I'm looking at right here? Man, it's been a while. You doing all right? How was the

vacation? And what did you do? You said you didn't go anywhere, right? Was it a staycation for you?

No, a little staycation. Shannon, I played a ton of golf. I watched a bunch of Star Wars movies, so it sounds like torture to you, I'm sure,

not much of a vacation. But you know what? I got bored, Shannon, and I can't remember the last

time I was truly bored. You know, our cell phones are such a distraction. Anytime you have a second

of downtime, I just pull out the phone, Shannon. You check TikTok, right? You look at Twitter.

You see what's going on in the world.

I kind of unplugged for a few days and allowed myself to be bored.

And it was nice.

It was really nice, Shannon.

I don't know how often you do it. I know you've got that vacation home down in Panama City Beach, but sometimes just to hang

around the house and to do nothing it was uh all of

the vacation i needed so i appreciate you holding everything down how was how was last week everything
