Pulled back the sheets to get in bed, and found a 3-4 inch long cockroach. Pence would wear such an insect proudly.

I moved to Florida from Missouri, and soon after I got there I began encountering palmetto bugs. An exterminator came in to spray the apartment for bugs, and I asked him about them. He looked at me square in the face, serious as hell, and says ominously: "those come from the outside." I don't know what was more disturbing, the bugs or this guy's response.

There were booths offering food. I approached a UK themed booth and asked about haggis. The woman there told me that most people don't like it.

Although, I am 100% certain I would never be staying in any of the places he'd frequent. Not traveling anywhere now, of course, but it is one of the places on my mini trip bucket list.

It's on the west coast (Gulf of Mexico) side which the storm is impacting the most.
