Feb. 18th, 2010 10:24 pmWell I had fun today! I went out with my dad tonight and, surprise surprise, I had a great time. Not that I have horrible times every time I go out with him or anything, and I do love him, but sometimes its more iffy than others and sometimes its just plain miserable (usually for me). Sometimes its just fine and I enjoy it. Tonight I had fun.
First, we went out to eat at Red Lobster. I love Red Lobster and tonight the seafood was ridiculously good, whether because they cooked it really well tonight or just because it'd been so long since I'd last had seafood I couldn't tell you. But it was great. I had one problem with the snow crab legs--the first ones they brought out were horribly mushy, ew--but the lobster was so well cooked I didn't have to struggle to get it to part from the shell, the shrimp scampi's juice was terrific, and I got a replacement set of crab legs that were just right. So overall I was very pleased. The waitress got a nice tip. XD
And then--we went to the bookstore!!! Only my favorite place ever. (Seriously.) Together we spent about $80 on books meaning about $100 worth of books in total. But see I get a nice discount from working where I work and so it was the cheaper price spent. Nice, yes? Indeed!
...I'm still getting over the fact that I actually bought the historical novels. Oh, dear. I am so obsessed its ridiculous. (I wonder when it will fade?) Renaissance Italy is so beautiful though; I wish I could go back and see it with my own eyes. Note I did not say I wish I was born back there--no, I like my technology too much, and plus if I wasn't born a noble? I would have been a very miserable person not to mention probably get into all kinds of trouble. X3 Ah, well. Anyway, the books I got are about the Medici, mostly Lorenzo. /sigh. Shut up, Giovanni, I do not need your opinion it is bad enough I know you will be reading over my shoulder every time I pick up one of these books. -_- ....I need to stop talking to my head muses out loud.
Aaaaaaand--! Yes, that's about it. Had a really great time, though. Dad was in a really good mood, I was utterly content with how he was acting for a change, and we had some interesting topics of chat. But, yeah, that's it! I'm happy. ^^
It's kinda a nice feeling, okay?
