merely talk

My parents were both in town last night. Which is a rare occurrence really. My parents being in the same city on a weeknight. Gads! Anyway since they are both lovely and wonderful people, they took me out to dinner. Since, unlike me, they are not poor. I always get to have an overpriced glass of wine when I'm with them. In fact if I don't order some form of alcohol I usually get shamed into it by them. Or at least my Mom. They really aren't trying to make me an alcoholic though. I swear.

It was lovely. We ended up going to Earls. Which I'm getting a little sick of. I've had the majority of their (small) vegetarian menu, and it's so loud. But I think this may have been a design choice. I've yet to go to an Earls that you didn't have to yell in to be heard. We went there because it's incredibly close to my apartment, and we had to be Atkins friendly for my Dad, thus ruling out the majority of my favourite (Italian or vegetarian) restaurants.

But it was all for the best. I really don't think my parents could handle the horrible service at the Naam.

Anyway it was good. I had a nice (free) meal and I got to see both my parents.
