That pretty much sums up several conversations the Gregbeau and I have had over the past couple weeks. It was time for a date. And to celebrate the close of another semester for him!
So date we did this past Wednesday night.
Indian cuisine at Mela. Groupon, of course. But I'd go back sans groupon. The food was different but quite delicious! One of those restaurants where you don't order anything by name...you just kind of point and wait for the waiter to pronounce it. At least that's what I did.
They have a delicious buffet but we did their 3-course meal. Some kind of lamb for me and some kind of chicken for the Gregeater. Don't remember the names...
The milkshake tasted like the smell of roses though!
Glow-In-The-Dark Monster Mini golf was next.
With a soundtrack of 80s and 90s pop music and colorfully painted glowing ghouls, it was a unique spin on the game. We decided it was in the best interest of the night to not keep score though. Mostly because of an incident that occurred the last time we played miniature golf.
It wasn't really my fault. Hangry Kyoo showed up to the date. And all was going well, we were neck and neck, until hole 14. Hole 14 was on top of a stupid hill. The kind of hill where if you don't hit the ball just so, it will glide over the top and back down.
Still hating on that hole!
It was after about my tenth or twelfth swing that I gave up. Gave up in a grand flop on the ground into a mini tantrum.
"I hate miniature golf! I was doing so well! This hole is impossible!"
Though really it wasn't because the Gregputter pretty much birdied the same hole 5 minutes ago. But still, I was hungry AND losing AND basically my life was over therefore rash accusations were justified.
It was in the midst of this fish-flopping and utter ridiculousness that the Gregman looked at me and simply asked, "Have you had dinner?".
I stopped. "No...."
"Ugh, why do you do this? Let's get you some food."
And that was that. Now, I realize this story makes me sound more like his child than his girlfriend. But let's overlook that, shall we, and just say he's really super cool like that and sometimes knows me better than I know myself?
And we've since learned from that experience and now take precautions. Like eating dinner first and not keeping score.
This mini-golf excursion passed without incident.
Also, thought this was funny because it's kind of how I pack when I go camping...or anywhere in general.
We ended with a nice sunset stroll thru Phil Hardberger Park. Now isn't that just romantic?
It was until we hopped on one of the spinning playground toys and made ourselves sick. My body doesn't handle those like it used to!!
Have a great day :-)

I love that you get hangry too! At least I'm not alone in that. And your conversation with Greg is hilarious- it's basically how ours go too :)
Haha, I can see that! Weird how not being hungry and actually spending fun time with your significant other can improve a relationship. Who knew??
Yeah, they should really push that topic in those Prep for Eternal Marriage classes and in youth talks and stuff. So many arguments could have been avoided....
