This has been an interesting week. On Thursday night, I tried to bribe my husband into going to parent/teacher conferences with me by promising that we would go out to dinner just the two of us after we visited with the teachers. I ended up doing it by myself while he fed the little people dinner, and then we did indeed go out on a little date. To Cafe Rio and Costco. We both brought home our leftovers. Two boxes. I know. We are so fancy! On Friday, Ryan had a lunch with some of his geek friends, and they had said that wives and kids were welcome (I guess it was actually spouses, since believe it or not, there are some women who are geeks, too). So, I took Jenna and John up to GoodWood and we had a nice lunch with Ryan (and a whole bunch of geeky people I do not know). One Styrofoam box of John’s lunch. Friday night I met up with three wonderful friends for dinner. Since I had just barely eaten lunch, I wasn’t all that hungry for dinner. What a shame that I had to bring home most of my lemon rosemary chicken. In a Styrofoam box. They are taking over!
