Date Night

I had an appointment this afternoon, and I basically asked my Mom, can I not come back to get them till 8? Dave met me at home at 5 and we had 3 hours with no kids! Did I ever need it, too! We went to Duffy's, which took over the old Roadhouse Grill. We'd never been there before, and it was packed! It turned from a peanuts on the floor steakhouse to a sports stuff on the wall grill and bar. Our food was actually really good, and the service was friendly and quick. 2 for 1 happy hour, including bottled beers (not just nasty, watered down cocktails that look nothing like the one in the picture, like Texas Roadhouse, remember, Lara? We should have just ordered a shot with your dad.) I was very happy with my Blue Moon and my mini cheeseburgers. I am pretty fussy about my cheeseburgers, but I really enjoyed these. They were more bread than meat, and the bread was very good, like little yeast rolls. The sweet potato fries were yummy.
Then we went to the movies, my choice this time: Stepbrothers. My brother Jason had recommended it to us, and I have to say, one of the funniest movies ever. Maybe I just needed a good laugh after this week of rain and stress, but I LOVED this movie. Warning: This movie was exceptionally crude and disgusting (although I did not think it was as offensive as The Heartbreak Kid, with Ben Stiller). I am not endorsing it or suggesting you go see it! I don't want to bring others down with me.
Looking back, I think it was kind of wierd that I chose cheeseburgers, beer and a raunchy comedy like Stepbrothers. But it was a very fun date night.
I had better go help Dave put the kids to bed. He just poisoned himself a little with old cake and looks pretty pale.
