Haven't Been Out in a While?

Last night we went to the Apollon for dinner. It's been years since I have gone there. I forgot how great of a place that was. The food is so delicious and the service was perfect. I love a restaurant where they actually clear your silverware between courses. That would be my inner princess rearing her spoiled little head. What can I say, a part of me really likes being a princess! I had lemon soup and Moussaka. It was wonderful. Better than you know what...yes, I'm talking... better than chocolate! There aren't many restaurants left that give that kind of service. The waiter was at our table clearing and setting and refilling constantly. I must like being serviced! After our wonderful dinner, we walked down to the theater. We were just in time for our ten o'clock show. I felt like a real grown up. No kids, nice dinner, no curfew. It was heaven. The show was great. I have never been to a comedy show before. I'm pretty sure I sprained my cheek muscles from laughing so much. The show was over by midnight and on the way home I thought it would be fun to stop for dessert and maybe a drink, but since I don't know Appleton very well, we ended up settling for just a drink at Bentley's in Green Bay before heading home. I normally don't stay out that late, but I had a ton of fun. And although Bentley's is a karaoke bar I was able to refrain myself from actually getting up and embarrassing myself on stage. I couldn't, however, refrain from dancing my ass off and embarrassing the crap out of Chip! What can I say, you go with your strengths, right? My strengths being the embarrassing part-not the dancing part-but I'm guessing you already knew that. We stayed until way after close and ended up getting home around three or three-thirty. Sadly we came home to a house with two kids still up. They were trying to break the "staying up record". Or so they say. Max refuses to go to sleep until I am home safe and sound, so he wasn't a surprise. Lex on the other hand was truly just going for the record. The rest were all sleeping soundly. I didn't get up until noon and then went to a movie with Max to thank him for getting along so well and not causing world WWIII while I was gone. Overall, I had a wonderful weekend. Too bad they can't all work out so well. Although if they did, I'd probably be considered an irresponsible, cable watching, food stamp using, child ignoring alcoholic with suicidal tendencies, but that's neither here nor there, right?
