A group of my friends and I are going out to eat dinner at the Outback Steakhouse tonight.  I really enjoy going out to eat a good steak now and then.  I don’t eat steak at home, it is too expensive and I really can’t seem to cook it just the way I like it.  So when I eat out, I like to order steak - if it comes out too well done I can send it back and get a new one!  I can’t send it back at home!

But also I really enjoy the pork chops at the Outback, if I ask them to hold the seasonings.  I don’t know why they seem to have to season everything so spicy!  I like my food NEKKED!  Their pork chops are thick and juicy and full of good flavor, so every now and then I’ll order pork chops there.  I don’t know why I can’t seem to buy pork chops that flavorful from the store!  I never have good luck with them at home, either! 

I’ll have to flip a coin tonight to see what I’m going to order tonight!

Much to my surprise, I have today off of work!  My friends who live in the suburbs have invited me to come out to their place for a noon time Memorial Day Barbeque, so I’ll be leaving in a short while to head out to the ‘burbs.  I asked them if I could bring anything and they said no, just to come.  They’ll be meeting me at the train station so all I have to do is call them and let them know when to meet me and we’ll be all set to go.  I do want to get back before dark because I really don’t like walking the streets alone after dark, so I’ll probably be leaving their place around 3 to come back home.

I’m looking forward to grilled steaks, potato salad, devilled eggs and corn on the cob!  Yummy!

Saturday night is going out night!  Tonight my group of friends and I are going out to dinner and then to a local night club, hoping to do some dancing.  Planning on going to a Japanese Steak house restaurant - we really enjoy watching the show of the chef juggling the food and the knives.  Very entertaining!  We are hoping to meet up with some guy friends at the night club later and maybe dance a few sets with them before we call it a night.  I can’t stay out too late tonight, I have to work today AND I have to work tomorrow so I have to be careful not to over-do it and get too tired or I won’t be worth a hoot at work!

My younger sister turned 18 yesterday, and for her birthday present she asked if she could come spend the weekend with me in the city.  I have the weekend off of work, so I told her that she could come on over and stay the weekend.  My apartment is so small, however, that I don’t have a separate guest bedroom, so she had to sleep on the sofa.  She ended up arriving yesterday afternoon, so we went out to eat dinner and caught a show before coming home.  I’m waiting for her to wake up now, and when she does I’ll be taking her out to eat breakfast and then we’re going to hit some museums and see the sites.

A few of my friends and I just got back from a vacation at DisneyWorld.  We flew down and took a shuttle from the airport to the condo that we were renting, and then used the condo’s courtesy shuttle to go from the condo to DisneyWorld and back again.  There were lots of restaurants within walking distance of the condo so we never had to rent a car.

What a great trip that was!  I loved walking around and people watching more than anything else; that is something that I seem to enjoy doing a lot. 

I think that the Haunted Mansion was my favorite attraction at the Magic Kingdom.  And at Epcot Center I really liked the boat ride through “The Land” where you ride a boat through some greenhouses and listen to them talk about new ways to grow food.  I thought that was very interesting!  And at MGM I think my favorite attraction was the Backstage tour.  But I really enjoyed watching the parades, and all of the streetside performances.  So much fun!  I would LOVE to live down there and work at DisneyWorld!  Maybe I’ll apply for a job there and IF I get it then I’d move.
