Man

I'm going to have to cross O'Naturals off my list of friendly hang-out places. The free wireless and tasty scones make me keep forgetting, but it's developed a ding I can't really overlook: it's successfully positioned itself as a more family-friendly alt to the Diesel (not that the Diesel is un-FF, but O'N has a little play area, and Diesel doesn't, so there), so it's always full of several last names' worth of utterly random-acting babies & toddlers noodling around. Which I'd normally be able to deal with -- my sphere of awareness is quite small -- except for the fact at O'Naturals is basically one large room with some truly outstanding echo effects.

Yyyyyyikes.

Also the coffee blows. But the scones, man. I guess that's what to-go bags are for.

I like kids depending on context. I find myself wary of strangers' kids in public, and annoyed by strangers doting on their kids. And really annoyed by the combination of kid-noise and doting-noise echoing freely through the O'Naturals cavern.
