Caught Off Guard

I have to say that I'm pretty good at reading TJ and knowing when something is up, so it's hard to surprise me, but on Saturday he TOTALLY caught me off guard! I went to get my haircut, came home and noticed TJ's parents were at our house, which wasn't odd because we were planning on seeing them later on that night anyway. I walked in the door, saw TJ dressed up and he told me to go get dressed. In an "ahh" state, I walked up stairs and on our bed were my clothes, shoes, coat, and jewelry picked out. He also printed the E-ticket out, so at that point I knew what we were doing. Shocked, I walked back out of the room and yelled, "HUBBY!" He told me to just do it and so I did. TJ's parents watched Sophia and we were off...
And for those of you who don't know, TJ loves to match, so notice our coordinating outfits! I know we look good;)
The show started at 8pm, so we took the ferry over early to get dinner. This was definitely a first...our car DIED on the ferry! Yes, we were one of "those" people. Thank goodness we were towards the back so we didn't hold anyone up. TJ ended up leaving our lights on and because it was so sunny that day we didn't notice and neither did anyone else. After every car had gotten off the ferry, a huge tractor type thing came driving us to give us a jump. As we drove away I waved and yelled thank you to the guy who jumped us. He gave us the, "you morons wave!" hahahahaha!
TJ let me pick the restaurant. I kept it simple and plus I was really craving The Old Spaghetti Factory. We walked in and only had to wait 2 minutes and we even got to sit in the train! I felt like a kid because I got very excited! Yummy brown butter and mizithra and Italian sodas!
And here we are
Ta-da
The show was really good, pretty simple compared to other shows I've seen, but a very fun story line. GIRL POWER! Most of all I loved being on a date with TJ (even though we both missed Sophia). I told TJ that mini-golfed would have been great too. He laughed and said he wanted something different. I'm one lucky girl.
More Highlights from our evening:
- A guy asking, "where's the wash-room?" Who says that?
- 2 gay guys sitting behind us on their first day (quite the interesting conversations)
- Young girls in WAY TO SHORT dresses
- Ladies not wearing dresses their size
- Holy jeans
- Old lady boobs (tons of cleavage)
- Transvestites
CAN YOU TELL WE DID A LOT OF LAUGHING ON OUR DATE!
