Title Block

I'm not feeling very creative today with coming up with a title for today's blog. I just thought I'd update you on what's been going on. Truthfully, not that much. My weeks are pretty much consumed by two things - work & Bryan. We try to spend as much of our free time together as we can. Last night was bowling. I didn't quite as good as last week, but still above my average. Bryan's been in kind of a slump lately. I've actually been beating him in several games. After bowling, we met some of his client friends from Indianapolis for dinner at Seasons 52. It's a really nice restaurant (even if it is a chain) with a very FLW look. And since his company was footing the bill, I ordered the second most esxpensive item on the menu (but I didn't drink anything alcohol wise so I figured it would even out with everyone else). I ordered the filet mingon, but when they brought it out, it was medium-rare, instead of medium like I wanted. They took it back and plopped it on the grill a little longer. When the chef returned with my meat, I cut it again, but it still wasn't cooked thouroghly. They took it back AGAIN and cooked it some more. By now, everyone else was almost finished with their dinners. The manager then came out and apologized profusely and took my dinner off the bill. When they brought my food back the 3rd time, it was finally cooked properly and was quite tasty. But all my vegitables were now cold and not very tasty. It's kind of funny that I was so worried about ordering an expensive dinner when my WHOLE meal ended up being free (I had water to drink). Oops. I forgot that I DID order a dessert, so it wasn't ENTIRELY free. After the restaurant closed, we went to the Ale House next door for more drinks. Once again, I had water (I was driving). We didn't back to my place til almost one and of course Bryan still had to drive 20 minutes back to his house.

This past weekend was all about sports. Sunday we went to a Tiger's game. Friday & Sunday nights were spent watching Kansas play in the NCAA Tournament. Friday night we went to a local sports bar to watch the game. Sunday night, we went to the mongolian BBQ place in Lakeland where I had another brush with undercooked meat. I put together this nice little chicken stir fry dish. I took one bite of the chicken and quickly found out that it wasn't fully cooked. They took it away and I made another plate and made sure that it was fully cooked. I ended up feeling really sick later that evening and even the next day. I think it was because of that one bite of undercooked chicken. In case you're wondering, I am feeling better :)

No wonder Andy is a vegetarian! I myself like my steak medium rare.
