Traditions, I realize, usually bring people together. But I don't think it means that I'm socially averse just because I have couple of traditions that I observe myself, regardless of whether or not anyone else joins me.
Today, the first day of the NCAA Tournament brings around one of those traditions. I like to commemorate the beginning of March Madness by setting out about 11 a.m. to find myself a nice juicy sandwich that I can enjoy by reveling in the beginning of the best sporting event on the planet.
This traditions took me to Beatnix this morning. I initially planned on taking a Philly cheesesteak sandwich, or possibly a Texas cheesesteak home with me. But when I walked in the door, I suddenly could not resist the smell of the grill and the overwhelming desire to order a swiss mushroom burger.
For treating yourself to a delicious, possibly slightly decadent sandwich, Beatnix is the place to go.
And so here I am in one of those places that only comes around once a year, like Christmas morning. It's worth looking forward to for the rest of the year.
