I went out to go to Best Buy. I needed media. I had a gift card. There’s a mega-shopping area nearby here which I loathe going to because it’s so damn suburban (“The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes” *retch*) and huge and crowded, but it was closer than the other Best Buy location I could think of.
By the way, it’s snowing pretty good, but it’s about 15° out and it is so nice. I didn’t shiver once and retained feeling in my extremities at all times.
Anyway, as I was trudging along in the long line of cars heading out of the shopping area, I was looking around and noticing that there were a whole bunch of restaurants. Good ones. A Buca and a P.F. Chang’s (and a Krispy Kreme) and a whole bunch of other stuff.
And then. I saw it. It’s a fluke I even noticed it between the blowing snow and the relative smallness of it, set back in one of the bajillion strips of stores.
There is a Potbelly in Minnesota! And it is 6 miles from my house. This is precious, precious knowledge.
It’s gotta be brand spankin’ new, because I checked to see if there was a Potbelly out here right before I moved four months ago and there wasn’t one.
