Or at least, it did until I read the news about madcow in Alabama. Oh well, I have mostly switched over all my beef consumption to Whole Foods anyway. Saturday nights are traditionally indecisive affairs. On one hand I want to go out and have a little fun, but on the other hand I have to get into bed relatively realy for work on Sunday. The usual arrangement, therefor, is to do stuff very early in the evening, and then when things begin to get fun, leave for home. Not exactly a good formula for making headway with the girls. This weekend was a bit more relaxing, as I ended up having dinner with the cousins. And by having dinner, I mean I bought, marinated, and cooked up a bucket of beef short ribs, and the cousins ate it all. It was nice to have a relaxing family meal tho, and the time just flew on by. We got all caught up on things, and I didn't have to waste any money on drinks. It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to make this a semi-regular affair. Still not a formula for making headway with the girls, tho.
