Woohooo

Woohooo!!!

My Sweetie is taking me out for a Valentine’s dinner tonight! Don’t know where we are going yet. We’re thinking of the Vietnam Palace, Yang Schen, Mamma Gratzi’s, Azteca’s….Don’t know maybe even somewhere new. Sara is here and playing with the Play Doh with The Boy. Speaking of which, had a great day with him. We all went to the Carlingwood mall for a couple hours. Bought new underwear of everyone, J got a new kitchen doo-hicky, we all went to Harvey’s for lunch and then home. The boy was overall good. There was a wee incident after leaving the play area in the Electronic Boutique that lasted for about 20 minutes. I love tantrums in public places! They make me laugh because they are usually over something so trivial. “MOMMY!!!!! I wanna go back and play with the game cube!!!!” Not like, “MOMMY!!! My arm was just severed and my life blood is spraying the walls!!!”. Although the volume and passion behind the screaming would be on the same scale! :( Anyway, when people stopped and stared at me dealing with the crying with hugs, I just stared them down and said loudly, “He’s a sad boy.” They would either smile or shake their heads in disgust. Their issues, not mine.

Anyway, must go. Time to hop in the car and decide where dinner is!

Nighty Night!


…..

So, I tired to publish the above post before we went out. Didn’t work, couldn’t connect to the server so I saved it. It’s now Sunday morning. Last night was awesome! The boy was happy to see Sara($25) and apparently they got along great. The boy even asked after her when he woke up this morning. J and I ended up at Patty Bolands for a nice informal dinner. We were on the ground floor in the back in a little nook of a table. Snuggling and PDA’s (public displays of affection) were had. J had the cornmeal crusted-saffron aole haddock, while I made due with the vegetable curry sensation. I don’t know why they named it that. There was nothing sensational about it. Flavourless/colourless would be more accurate. Then again they were going for a Thai/Indonesian curry while I’m used to Indian curry that is very flavourful. J and I basically ate off each other’s plate so I had my share of his fish as well. After dinner (75$ with tip) off we went to Oh So Good for cake and coffee at my request($25 with tip). I haven’t been to this place in ages. I had a Chai café latte with a slice of chocolate brownie cheesecake, while J had English Breakfast tea from a mal-designed pitcher, (it leaked on the table whenever you poured from it.), and a slice of “The Real Deal”, which was some sort of chocolate mousse cake with slivered almonds on the top. Neither of us finished, but it was due to richness. So now we are at the end of the evening, the drive home. My tummy, is at this point not happy at me, I don’t know how I made it the 45 min. drive home ‘cause when I finally got there I lost all my dinner. J compared me to the Simpson’s episode where Homer wouldn’t stop eating the giant sandwich that was older then time, I looked all grey and shaky and shivery. He made the bed for me and tucked me in. I feel much better this morning, but Holy God! J ate the exact same things that I did. We shared plates the whole night and he was fine!?! ARG! Oh well, now my only gripe is that how am I supposed to Weight Watcher point out what I threw up and didn’t throw up???? The entire evening came to about $130 with $5 of parking. We both said the same thing, we’re not going out together again until our anniversary in August!

Anyway, The Boy wants some attention.

Ciao for now.

I can testify to the fact that pub crawlin' with Teddy is MUCH FUN! :D And the finish at Oh So Good is a fabulous finale. Ted, if I ever make it back to La Capital, we must have a night out! We can even do the shopping first if you'd like. ;)

Hope you're feeling better, Kay m'dear! Being sick is no fun. And the pictures of the boy are Wonderful!!!
