rob & i went to eat dinner at macaroni grill. i was all confused for a while there because the dish that i always get wasn't on the menu anymore. then i realized that it actually was still there, but they've changed the name of it. what's the story on that? of course i guess if i went there more often, i'd know these things. oh well, it doesn't really matter. it was yummy and that's what does matter.
... morewe then went to the pharmacy and rob bought me some sea-bands. they were only $8, so i figured i'd at least try them out. "What's more, one study conducted by an American midwife showed that women wearing Sea-Bands also reported less anxiety, depression and hostility!" well, i could certainly do with less of those three things - who couldn't? i'll report back later with results.
then rob wanted to go to best buy and look at this. both of us have wanted a 16:9 widescreen tv for a long time, but last time we priced them, they were a lot more. it's still a lot, but not when you compare it to the prices we saw in the past. we also played with this thing and i was all "how is all this sound coming out of these two tiny speakers?!" we didn't really look at it because a) it's a grand and b) we bought a home theater package a couple of years ago that's just fine (meaning it didn't get flooded) so we weren't looking to buy the thing anyway. so until i got home and i went to their site, i had no idea that there was in fact another piece to the system. i don't know where they had the acoustimass module thing hidden in the store, i just know it sounded good.
rob asked me during dinner if i'd thought about names at all. "uhm ... no." i honestly haven't even really thought about it because it all still seems so far away. of course i could be looking at names now, we could always get that out of the way early.
when we got back here, we talked for a while. i feel better now. it's not as if anything was wrong, but i've just been all weirded out lately which i guess i should have expected. my body is freaking out so it only makes sense that my brain should follow. rob said something like "yeah, just go ahead and be a freak. it's ok." that's not what he said. i don't even really remember what he said, but it was just that he understands that i'm being a weirdo lately and probably will continue to do so for a while - and that's ok.
rob & i keep bringing this one up lately:
"you alright there, margie?"
"oh, i just think i'm gonna barf ... well, that passed. now i'm hungry again."
