Dinner at the Capital Grill this weekend was amazing! I had an amazing piece of salmon and Patrick had a really flavorful dry aged porterhouse steak. Patrick had told the restaurant that we were celebrating our anniversary and so at the end of our meal they brought us two deserts - a creme brulee and a very rich chocolate espresso flourless cake. I had never had a "good " creme brulee and so I was willing to let Patrick have both deserts (I don't like espresso/coffee cakes). But he encouraged me to try the creme brulee and I loved it! It was more like a pudding than the very gross egg like nastiness I was expecting (bad experience with flan - ick). So he ate the espresso chocolate cake and I ate the creme brulee and we went home very full with left overs! The entire dinner was very reasonably priced as well as delicious. I think we are planning on going back for Thanksgiving (if they are open) and if not, we want to go back again soon. It was really wonderful food!
The rest of the weekend was uneventful and relaxing, which is good because I have nearly lost all my brain cells in the process of all these interviews. I was right about yesterday (Monday) sucking. It was awful. I was litterally at work for 13 hours straight without a break for lunch or dinner. Today hasn't been too awful. I didn't have to be here until 1 pm. So it was nice to get some rest and relax with Patrick this morning. I have my last interview of the day in about 10 minutes. Yay! The rest of these bloody things are spread out over the next three weeks, so it won't be too bad.
Katie left NM today to go out to NC to be with Seneca. He has been there for a little over a month with his family. His mom (Tammy) is still not doing very well. As Katie put it, they are making her well enough to die. From what Katie said, they will be there until March so I won't get to see her for Christmas. I'm going to see if I can possibly go down to NC to visit Gemma (surprise!) and Katie at some point next semester - if I can get the time off of school.
Curves is going well. I feel a lot better and I'm seeing some improvements - although small. I've only been there about three weeks so that is something at least!
Those of you that know me well, know that I HATE milk. I don't drink the stuff and I even go so far as to buy soy milk to use on cereal. Well, wonder of wonders, lately I have been mixing skim milk with chocolate milk to drink in the cafeteria. I can't get enough of the stuff. Even now, I hate the thought of drinking it, but I crave it. No, I am NOT pregnant. Trust me. I'm not. It just strikes me as very odd.
Well, time to sit through another fun interview of "I want to be a RA because my old RA sucked and I think I can do a much better job...". Yay.
