Valentine's Date

I had to work Valentine's Day morning, so Adam and I decided to go to St. Joe, a town about 45 mins away, for a change of scenery, and their theater had the movie I wanted to see. I got off work a little earlier than we thought I would so we thought it would be fun to just spend the day in St. Joe instead of just that evening.

We went to Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch, and Oh goodness it was delicious. I love BW's, and I haven't been to one since I lived in Indiana 2 years ago, so when we discovered St. Joe had one, we knew that's where we were going!

After that we walked around the mall and window shopped, having a lot of fun, went to a bookstore, and walked around a few other stores since we had time before our movie started.

Eventually it was time to go to a movie, and we had bought our tickets via Fandango.com the night before so we could make sure we got our tickets, and we wouldn't have to worry about the line. So, we go to the line to get into the movie, and we have a problem, the tickets we bought were for Friday night, not Saturday night. So, they called a manager over, and the manager said not to worry about it, he understands the mistake and to just go ahead and go into the theater. I was oooh so very thankful. So we saw Confessions of a Shopaholic, and it was AMAZING. I loved it, and Adam really enjoyed it too.

After the movie we went to Chili's, had our appetizer, and waited for our food, when a manager came to our table and was really apologetic because they had lost Adams food, but mine was ready, and they could bring mine out. I asked for them to just make me a new one because I really didn't want to eat with out him, it's kind of awkward. She then offered to pay for our entire meal, and I said that wouldn't be necessary, because I work at a restaurant and understand how that happens. Our food came out in a VERY timely manner, we probably only waited 10 more mins, not a big deal at all, and it was DELICIOUS. But, we decided to save room for desert, so I have a full meal as leftovers today. We had a white chocolate molten cake with raspberry syrup, and it was amazing. I loved it. Our bill came and everything but the desert was taken care of. I was in shock, and really appreciated what they did, even though I think the ONLY thing they should have taken care of was Adam's meal, if they had to take care of anything. But our bill was $6.49, so we left a $20.00 and called it good, hoping to make sure that our server had a great evening as well.

After that we drove home, and called it a night.

It was amazing, and great fun, I really enjoyed it.


I hope everyone else had a good Valentine's Day too.
