Weekend Update
Happy 25th Birthday to me on Friday, August 25th. It was my golden birthday and it was goldtastic. Whatever that entails. I did some shopping during the day and tried out Wolfgang Puck Express over at MOA. It was really good. It frustrates me that fast food is mostly so unhealthy and gross when places like W.P. show that it can be fresh and tasty instead.
Friday evening Pete took me to Jensen's Supper Club. It's pretty much right between where we live and where Pete works, so it was nice and close. Good choice, Pete! It's a fun place with dark wood interiors and a jazz band playing in one part of the restaurant. They have delicious food and lots of fun martinis to choose from. I had a key lime martini and then a sweet bee martini (it has orange juice and lime in it) and both were very good. Most importantly about the dinner, I had possibly the best prime rib of my life. For someone who adores prime rib the way I do, that is saying a lot. Whenever I think I could handle being a vegetarian (which I think I could pull off at least 5 days a week), I think about never having prime rib again and I know it would never work. It was amazing.
Saturday Pete and I caught the movie "Beerfest" over at MOA. We both had some high expectations and walked away mildly disappointed. It was fairly funny, but definitely not hilarious. Oh well, every movie can't be a "Super Troopers." Wah-wah.
So now it's Sunday and we're watching the Twins game and preparing to do some grocery shopping here in a bit. I start my new job tomorrow, or at least I start training for my new job tomorrow. I'm a little bit nervous. However, Pete and I are going camping next weekend at St. Croix State Park, so I'm jazzed about that.
A final parting question: Why is it illegal to drive barefoot? I think driving barefoot is a lot safer than driving in flip flops or heels.
