Two Truths and a Lie

Isn't it odd when you go by one of your favorite restaurants at dinner time and it's closed? It's a Tuesday evening and all signs point to some Mexican food being a good option after a long, obnoxious day at work. You hop into your car and go slightly out of the way on your drive home to order some take-out.

The out of the way part is going to be worth it for the food.

Then you get there and see that the doors are shut, the mail is in the slot, and the lights are all turned off. All of the lights except the stupid multi-colored christmas lights that still adorn the edge of the roof.

It's inappropriate that the lights are still up and that the restaurant is closed.

This time you don't get out of your car because you think that you can see enough through the tinted windows to feel assured that the place really is closed. But why would it be closed? It's a Tuesday! Is it because they ave finally gone out of business? The last time you were there there were quite a few patrons happily eating. Did the health department close them down? Eek! You sure hope not as you turn your car around to take off. Did they get taken away like the end of times and you were left? Too many cars still remaining for that to be the answer, you think.

Why then is the placed closed on a Tuesday?

You will go back to try again on Thursday to see if any of the above is the reason the doors were closed and seemingly locked.
