As I mentioned before, the husband is on spring break all this week so hooray for that! We�ve been on more dates than usual the past few days and it�s been really nice. One of our dates was a lunch date today at The Great American Bar & Grill. This restaurant has been here for about 2 years (I think?) but today was the first time we decided to try it - based soley on the fact that we had received a �Take $7.00 off your total purchase� coupon in the mail. Pretty smart advertising on their part because had it not been for that we surely would have ended up someplace else. Here�s their menu - a few semi-interesting things and then most of your basic stuff. We decided to stick with something �safe� so we shared a cheese pizza - it wasn�t great, but it was pretty ok. I think we�ll give them another try (they did send TWO of those $7.00 off coupons) and order separate entr�es next time - that will be the true test I suppose. I�m not expecting greatness because it is still a chain restaurant but that�s about 98% of what we have available to us here so we take what we can get. We did our taxes yesterday which was a an easy and painless 20 minutes or so. All we have to do now is wait for the returns to show up which is anytime between now and about 2 weeks from now. I wish I had some really exciting story about what we�ll be spending it on as I know many people anxiously await their returns in order to make some thrilling new purchase but we have no such plans so both checks will be simply be deposited into the �ol bank account and that�ll be the end of it. In other news, earlier today I was presented with a hyperlink with a caveat in BOLD. I knew the subject of the link and I knew it was nothing of interest to me but the warnings telling me how explicit it was and how it may offend some viewers got the best of me and I just HAD to click. I�ve never seen anything like this in my life - hell, I�ve never even HEARD of anything like this in all my life. I must admit that even I, yes, me, was a little disturbed by it and ever since watching it I�ve been telling myself that it�s some type of digitally computerized alteration of the event and that it didn�t really happen the way it appears to have happened - it�s the only way I�ll be able to sleep tonight...or ever again! So, without further adieu, I present to you, the video... |
