Date Night and other expenses

So last night we actually went on a date. We got tickets to the Friends of the Bob & Tom Show Comedy Tour, went to that, and had dinner at Samurai Sam's first. It was pretty good, even though I didn't seem to enjoy it while we were there (I did laugh a lot, Nick was too busy having an aneurysm from laughing so hard to notice if I was or not). During the day, Nick got a haircut, and when he was done he was going to bring my laptop in to get fixed ... only his Check Engine light came on, so home he came and called Walker Tire to see about getting it worked in and checked out instead. Turns out his alternator needed replaced ($435 -- bye bye tax return) . Today we picked his car up, and went to Best Buy to bring the laptop in, and I'm without it for 2-3 weeks ... so who knows how much internet that means I'll get ... I might actually find a hobby!!! (Speaking of which, I'm just over 2/3 done with my first knitting project). I started with new infants (well, little infants) Thursday. My kids so far seem to be really good, Janice's kids were pretty good for me too :) Was a really nice surprise for me. Guess that's really it for now -- stay tuned for the next installment, who knows when it'll be!
