I love my phone and Daylight Savings Time

So last night before I went to bed I changed my clock back and set the alarm on my phone to wake me up this morning. All other cell phones that I have had automatically updated (I assume at the right time, but at least before I needed to be awake.) Well, I had a meeting at 8:15 and it is safe to say that I missed it because my phone said it was only 7:15. All those who know how much I absolutely love to be late and or miss things that I am supposed to be at know how happy that made me!

Going out for Lunch

So this afternoon I went to lunch with some of my friends. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing that we decided upon. I thought that Elizabeth had a work meeting that she was at but decided to call her and check with her to see if it was over and if she wanted to come. Well, she declined coming along because she had some things that she wanted to get done first. I completely understand and had no problem with that. (Although, everything is better when she is around!)

So we set out for Cafe Pierpont. Well it turns out that Cafe Pierpont closed back in August. I was quite upset as I have been craving Cafe Pierpont since last summer, but just hadn't found the right time to go.

We decided to go over to the Olive Garden instead. We sat down and ordered our food. Which if there is anyone that hasn't been to the Olive Garden you are missing out. And if you aren't a fan of Italian food, than I suggest the Stuffed Chicken Marsala. It is really good. I am facing the towards the entrance. I can't see the waiting area, but as people are being seated, I can see them walk in to the area of the restaurant.

So we are sitting there eating our food and I look up and in is walking Elizabeth and her mom. Neither one see us (I am also with Elizabeth's brother Jon) even though there aren't any tables in between. We weren't right next to them, but fairly close. So I sent Elizabeth a text message asking her how the Olive Garden was. She looked at her purse shortly after I sent the text so I assume she got the text, but she opted not to look at her phone to see who it was.

I then tried to call her and if she didn't answer had decided to go over and try to take their order for them. Well while Elizabeth's phone is ringing, her mom looks up and sees me and then ruins the fun that I had planned by telling Elizabeth to look at who was sitting at the table directly behind her.

I guess the moral of the story is that Elizabeth and I enjoy the same restaurants which is a very good thing. Then to top it off, someone paid for my food. I think that someone will be in trouble later on.

Welcome

So I officially created this a couple of weeks ago and it is still a work in process. I thought I might as well go ahead and get it going for all of you as I doubt I will ever be 100% happy with it. I will try and get some pictures for you soon.
