Benihana was pretty fun. Raffy and I sat with a group of 6 who knew each other - a mom and dad with their grown son with girlfriend, and daughter with husband - the husband who was an incredible ass. They had a baby with them, but it was tucked away behind the table somewhere sleeping.
Our chef had a really high pitched voice - I had a hard time understanding him, but he did most of the little cooking tricks. He loved picking on Raffy! Raffy got shrimped several times with shrimp tails.
But the whole time the Ass kept trying to impress everyone with his knowledge of "what was to come" and was really spoiling the effect of just letting the chef perform. "Oh - here comes the train!!! -- and -- Eh, it's an okay volcano.... Ha ha ha - now YOURE the one he's going to pick on..." This went on and on and on. I just ignored him, and I could tell the family was trying to as well. I kept looking at his poor wife thinking, You married That. Ha ha ha.
I got a free bowl of strawberry ice cream, and Raffy and I shared our meals - chicken and fillet mignon. It was delicious and we will definitely go back!
So I had a good week off. I went with my friend and got my nails done at this upscale mall - which I will live much closer to in the next couple months. Last week I went to the gym, and I got sick on Thursday - a virus that's been going around.
This weekend Raffy and I accomplished so much! We went to Mesa Ridge and got our application in, then we threw out our broken couch, rearranged the apartment, cleaned and packed a good majority of our things. We know exactly what we need to do, how long it will take, and we're pacing ourselves. Raffy just started a new semester of school, and he's ready to push through the last semesters.
I promised some pictures of our new place. This is exactly the model Raffy and I viewed when we went to the apartments a couple months ago. They all have hardwood floors now:

a shame that you got seated with the ass :\ its good though that you were still able to have a good birthday.
take care sis! ;)
Dude. Super HUGE!!
I've seen houses with less space than that. Really, really nice.
Why, thank you. It's actually about the same size - I'm going to follow their lead and put less bulky furniture in it.
I can't wait!
Dude. One word:
IKEA. I know it's a drive to Houston, but they're the best for apartment-sized furniture. I love their couches! So comfty, and they have multiple colored slip ons in case you ever felt the need to change your look.
