Every Christmas card I write has been...oh, you get the idea

Yesterday evening, after bethje was done with school, she and I went out to eat at Charlie Brown's Steakhouse. She had been there before, but I never had. I thought it was good, albeit a little pricier than the places we usually eat. We had the calamari appetizer, which was pretty tasty, if a bit salty. This was the second time I had eaten calamari (the other time was at Red Lobster), and I think I've come to the conclusion that, while I don't like clams, squid is okay by me. I suppose some mollusks are more appetizing than others. Anyway, my entree was the garlic shrimp, which wasn't really all that garlicky. Still good, but I had a bite of Beth's parmesan chicken, and I liked that better. Maybe I'll have that if I ever go back again. Mine came with a piece of Texas toast, though. I like it when stuff comes with bread, which sounds kind of lame, since, hey, it's just bread. I prefer bread to potatoes, though. Of course, my entree came with both, and the fries were actually pretty good, but, if other restaurants gave a choice between potatoes and bread, I'm sure I'd generally choose the bread. That's just me, though, and I'm probably different from the majority of Americans.

I also bought another Christmas present last night, as well as some Christmas cards. If you want a card from me, let me know. They're nothing special, but hey, getting mail is cool, right?

I was about to argue with you and state that squid are NOT mollusks, but then I looked it up and learned that I was wrong. Dead wrong. hehe.

I'm with you on the bread thing. I'd pick bread over potatoes any day of the week (including Thursday!)

Bread here too. All the mollusk stuff sounds kind of disgusting, but bread can be embraced by everyone.

Well, except maybe people on low-carb diets. But then, they probably wouldn't want the potatoes, either.

I know I'm late (Berlin and all) but cards are cool if you still have any left. Let me know if you need my address again.

Yeah, I think I can manage that, although I'm sure it won't arrive until after Christmas.
