Fabulous weekend!

Had a fabulous weekend!

Friday night, I tried to surprise the Pirate and take him on a date. It ended up being "interesting" to say the least.
We started out going swing dancing. Granted, he had fun, but I dont think he had great fun. We did laugh a lot and dance a little bit. He even kinda guessed where we were going. At least he had never been there to do that before. And he also admitted that he figued I was taking him to play laser tag. (Ok, note to self- its a bit cliche, dont take him to play laser tag next time. Take him straight to the gun range)

So we left the dance early to go to the restaurant. And I was totally psyched about it, since neither of us had been there before. It was 7West Bistro in Towson. Now, my boss had given me a head's up that it does get a little wild in there on the weekends. Well, we didnt' realize how wild.

We got there about 10:30, and no sooner had we gotten our drinks, and placed the appetizer order, that they turned the lights waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay low. And a DJ started spinning American Pop music. We giggled and I texted my boss, and she laughed and said "Just wait till they start playing the Greek music videos behind it..." oh boy. She wasnt kidding.
So that was funny. Then they turned the lights off completely. We were sitting in the dark trying to eat our appetizers. And to be honest I was a little upset. My PIrate and I were sitting next to each other, and couldn't hear each other talking, and couldn't see our plates. The waiter finally brought us two little tiny tea lights to try and eat by. We ended up staying there only about 35 minutes and taking most of our food home.

We'd both like to go back and try eating there again when we can see what we're eating.

Then we came back home and had some great cuddle time.

Saturday night, the Pirate had to work, and I went out with some friends for a birthday dinner. We went to the Still which is one of the great places my Pirate has taken me to eat.
We had great drinks, and laughed a lot. I even saw one of our housemates, and another friend there, so I felt like a celebrity knowing people at the bar.

I think the highlight of the night for me, was that everyone noticed my weightloss. Rachel said I looked great (and she has a really great and neat figure.) and Larry and Cat both commented on it.
So, when Larry made comment I stood up and proudly claimed that I have lost 18 pounds. And Cat said i look amazing and was asking how much more I want to loose. I said I'd like to loose another 15, and (here it comes!) her friend heather proclaims "Jesus! You're kidding right?!" she was flabberghasted that I wanted to loose more. It felt great and Im taking it as a compliment.  I really do want to loose 15 more to get back to where I was last year at this time.

And Im excited because today- My Fire belt should be arriving in the mail. So provided its not pouring rain tonight, I think we might be spinning some fire in the backyard!!
SQUEEEEEEEEE! Pin It Now!
