Since it is a holiday week, Lester and I took the day off to have date day!
Guess what was the first thing we did on our day off from work and babies?
We got our flu shots!! Yessss! We are so HAWT! lol...
(Seriously, folks, the flu is nothing to play with. If you haven't gotten yours yet, get it soon. There's some nasty stuff going around already this year!)
After getting stuck with needles, we went to a new Thai place that opened recently in midtown Baltimore. Can you say all kinds of AWESOME?
Then we went to a cute coffee shop, ordered holiday drinks and banana bread, and sat in a corner and just talked. It was really nice -- like way back when we were dating, and there was no end to the conversation topics we could come up with, despite the fact that our coffee had long gone cold, and our butts were sore from the wooden chairs.
Thankfully, we looked up from our chat-fest in time to see that we had 10 minutes to get to our movie -- The Descendants -- so we boogied on over and watched a real, full-fledged, grown-up movie (which is pretty good, actually, if you're thinking about seeing it). Just me and my sweetie pie, sharing a buttered popcorn. Heaven.
Delicious lunch. Coffee shop lounging. A cozy matinee. I'd say all in all, we had a truly wonderful, super great date day.
Note: To reprimand us for going out and having fun without them, the boys were NUTS when we got home, crying and whining like professionals, refusing their dinner, and generally acting the fool. I was excited to see them while we were driving home from the movie, but we put those crazies to bed before 7; that's how bad it was.
Lester said no good date goes unpunished.
But I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
