This actually happened a week ago, but . . .
It was Monday - I was speaking w/ my friend "Maggie" and mentioned about still needing to take her out for her b-day.
Her b-day was in Sep, but that was when Jenova was removed and Maggie had been one of my main caretakers during my recovery period. I thought I'd take her to PF Changs - we'd neither of us been.
So, she says let's go tonight - meaning this last Monday. I make reservations, throw on a skirt and blouse and go to pick her up. We arrive at PF Changs and lo! and behold! there's a fire engine and a police car. I really didn't think it'd matter as there were cars still in the lot. We go into the atrium only to be stopped by a fireman - we weren't allowed to enter. Well, damn. Now, mind you there were no flames, and there was nothing mentioned in the news, but since it's my interesting life - things cannot go smoothly. Ever.
Quite put out, we both tried to think of where to go. I wanted to take her someplace nice, so she mentioned our favorite dessert - Creme Brulee - mmm . . . Creme Brulee. So, I think Vivaces! This is a very nice Italian restaurant in Omaha's Old Market area. It's high end, delicious, and Harrison Ford always dines there when he's in town. And their Creme Brulee is to die for. Heading from West Omaha to downtown Omaha . . . It's nice weather so there's no friggin' parking!
Where do we end up? The Outback in Bellevue. Bellevue's south of Omaha - home to Offutt AFB and MANY restaurants/fast food places.
The Outback. And our wild splurge? I got a larger steak and she got grilled shrimp. -__- Oh, the wild life of single girls in Omaha, NE!
The Outback . . . Now, I like the Outback, but my plans to take my friend for a nice, slightly expensive dinner went to hell!
Oh, and to wrap up the wild night - we went to . . . Gamestop. Yes, Gamestop. Well, there was a very cute Johnny Depp-ish looking boy who I got a crush on, but aside from that . . .
Wow - it just doesn't get any more wild than that . . .
Sheesh! I can't even take someone out for a nice evening - seriously - interesting doesn't mean fun or exciting - it just means interesting.
