Nov. 22nd, 2014 10:23 amCordelia had a great time bowling last night. There were apparently a lot more kids there than had RSVP'd by the reservation deadline. They had three lanes with six or seven kids a lane. When we came back to get her, they had the lights down low with colored lights highlighting the pins. Cordelia tells us that they put the bumpers up.
Scott had been late getting home from work, so he and I hadn't had dinner. We ended up going to Applebee's after we dropped Cordelia off. It turned out not to be such a great idea for me-- I ordered a burger, and it turned out to have spicy sauce on it (which wasn't in the menu description). I ended up with reflux that went late into the night. The burger was also kind of overcooked for my taste (bits were crunchy).
After dinner, we went to REI and bought a 1.75 inch sleeping pad for Cordelia. Scott got a membership there a while back, so we had a 20% off coupon that helped a bit. There wasn't anything else in the store that we were interested in, so we didn't stay. Instead, we went next door to Whole Foods. We bought apples and ginger candy (Scott uses ginger candy to help keep himself alert at work). We looked at tea and kitchen gadgets.
Work didn't keep Scott for the full four hours. He was home and in bed around 7:00. He was only that late because he wanted to pick up bagels and had arrived at Bagel Fragel before they opened their door. He has to work tomorrow. Work is saying that, if everybody works really hard, they might give people a four day weekend. We'll believe that when it happens. In twenty one years, I think it's happened once. Scott always works the Friday after Thanksgiving. He usually has the Saturday and Sunday off, at least.
