Dave and Busters just opened up near our house. I asked Jack if he wanted to go some place new for dinner and he said, “No” and chose Souplantation. On the way back to the car we had to walk by Dave and Busters so I asked Jack again if he wanted to go and he said, “No”. I said lets just go see, you might like it…he had no idea they had video games:
Jack and Stacy loved it. They loved playing all the games…I think this might be a regular dinner spot for us now.
Really, I don’t drink as much as I used to but this has been a good week to hit the sauce. The family went out for sushi and Aya and I decided to get some sake.
I only recently started eating sushi and I like to order a little at a time instead of trying to guess-timate how much I will eat and have them bring it all at once. In any case, Aya and I must of have been hungry because we kept ordering food and kept ordering sake. Aya and I had 3 bottles of sake.
Aya told me, this sake is doing nothing for me, I don’t feel it at all. Sure enough, when Aya got up to take Stacy to the bathroom, Aya felt the sake kick in and then it was giggle-town all night long!
After drinking, I stopped off at my favorite taco truck on the way home:
The picture is a little blurry, but it works out well because my vision was drinking was probably like this when I took the picture! I had my tacos and passed out on the sofa when I got home.
Update on Raj – not only was the prior day awesome, Raj came to work and he looked terrible. Raj said his head hurt and he felt nauseas. Raj ended up throwing up at work….but then felt fine. A few more bucket item lists to check off…hangover and sick.
This was a awesome HAPPY! Went to a farewell happy hour for a coworker. We decided to have several rounds of shots and beers:
One of my coworkers never drinks. He did take a shot. A few minutes after the shot my coworker (I will use the name Raj) asks me:
Raj: What did we drink?
Miles: What did who drink? I am drinking a beer.
Raj: No a few minutes ago.
Miles: The shot?
Raj: Yeah, what was that.
Miles: Tequila.
Raj: What??! I have never had tequila before…it made my throat warm.
Miles: Did you like it?
Raj: Yeah, but am I was suppose to feel anything? I don’t feel anything.
Miles: No…just give it a few minutes.
About 4 more shots later, Raj was ‘feelin’ it. There was some bar food someone ordered and Raj saw some chili fries and started eating it.
Raj: What kind of fries are these?
Miles: Chili fries.
Raj: Man, chili fries are great!
Miles: Yeah, anything is good when you drink.
Raj: What’s chili?
Miles: Beef
Raj: What kind of beef?
Miles: It is your holy C-O-W
Raj: OH NO!! I can’t eat sacred cow!! But it tastes so good….
Raj proceeded to eat the rest of the plate of chili fries! It was awesome. Such a happy day. Got my coworker to have some alcohol…got him to eat some beef….good times!!
In keeping with yesterday’s theme, this was a happy and boo day…but I will focus on the happy. The happy part was I was dismissed from jury duty and do not have to serve for at least one year…YAY. Additionally, I found this place at lunch time for jury duty:
Bad news, after I was dismissed from jury duty, I found this on my car *IN* the jury duty parking lot:
This really shouldn’t make me feel ‘happy’ but it made me chuckle. Stacy got out of the car on her side and Aya got something out of my trunk. Both of them just trotted into the house leaving the door and trunk wide open:
I am happy when Stacy specifically asks me to spend my work lunch watching her at gymnastics class:
Speaking of hair, it makes me happy to blow dry Stacy’s hair and then comb it for her. I dunno why I enjoy it because every time I do it, I just keep wondering there has got to be a better hair dryer out there that works faster than the one that we have!
I suppose it is one of the few’ ‘girl-y’ things I can do with her…for now.
My happy little helper…so happy that *SOMEONE* actually wants to be outside to help me wash cars AND does actual WORK!!
One of the rare times when it is a family photo where I am actually *IN* the picture:
Celebrating Aya’s birthday with the kids and their beady little eyes:
And then over compensating with abnormally large alien eyes!
