I just have to do a rare Sunday blog entry... I am still bouncing from our "date" last night! You know, once you get married it's usually just "goin' out". Well some friends of mine L and J have a deal they call date night. They go on dates about once a week or so! I always thought that was pretty cool. Anyway I decided Angie and I needed a date so I offered to take her to Pappa Bros Steakhouse. For those who don't know, PBS is a really nice place, reservations required on a weekend but not to hoity toity if you know what I mean... I dig it. Anyway we went shopping before we went to dinner. I got some kick ass Kenneth Coles and she got a few other things. We had reservation at 8:45 and despite that reservation we had a little wait before we could sit down, so we went to bar and had just enough time for one drink, which set the mood just right. Once we sat down, the waiter was awsome, the food was great, the service was great, everything was just perfect. So much so we even had desert which we never do! Anyway after that we went downtown and met J and L at the Mercury Room. It was L's birthday and she wanted to dance. The MR was very damn cool... I mean bad ass but the parking situation sucked! We had to park about 3 blocks away and it was 25 degrees and a 50 MPH wind blowing so that was the pits. Once we got in J and L had a table so we sat with them in the Frank Sinatra room for a hour or so listening to a Earth Wind and Fire kind of group jam and having some cocktails. My fav drink Vanilla Stoli and Diet Coke! Then we made a mistake, we stood up! We wanted to dance so we went upstairs to the dance room and BAM! nut to butt! You couldn't walk in that place. It was very cool but way to crowded so after fighting our way around a big circle we decided it was done. It was already 1:20a so at that point it was a bit to late to go any place else so it was off home. The thing is there was no great event that set the night off, it was the fact that we were out on a date! It felt really good to be having that date mentality again instead of the old "where do you want to eat?", " I don't care.","how about 'sitos?","I don't want mexican food."... routine. I can't wait to go on anther date! Well it will have to wait for now... maybe we can adopt that date thing...hmmm. I think I hear a #'s Friday or a Roxy Sunday calling me... or maybe J can have the TSO party he's been on about. No matter we are there!
