Two Brainwash Cafes?!?!
It wasn’t until Energy Girl (my fiance) came across a previous post, that I realized that there are two Brainwash Cafe’s. There’s that one, who gave me the honorable mention and there’s the Brainwash Cafe Landromat. What are the odds that both would come into this Lazy Man’s life? While I’m here I should mention [...]
