Date Night

I was in charge of our date night this week. I would like to say it was amazing and went off without any problems. But.. alas, I can't say that. In fact, some may have considered it to be a disaster. Luckily, Brett and I were able to laugh our way through it and still have a fabulous time.

The original plan:

• Brett accompanies Kirsten to get a hair cut (romantic, I know)
• Dinner at a local El Salvadoranian restaurant (yummy pupusas)
• Comedy Show on campus (living near a university has its perks)
• Dessert at YoZone (flavored frozen yogurt place with add-ins)
  

Sounds simple, right?. Easy, no stress date, right? Wrong.

The problems:

1. The comedy show was sold out
   
2. I had to cancel my hair appointment because I naively underestimated how long it would take to get a cut and highlights.
   
3. Having my heart set on getting my hair cut, we tried to go to another salon for a cheap cut and were told the wait was an hour.
   
4. The restaurant disappeared. Literally. Okay so more likely it just went out of business. But by this time Brett was laughing at my bad luck, and I was upset that nothing was working out.
5. When we arrived at Yo-Zone, ALL the frozen yogurt machines were empty.
   

Okay, so looking back it doesn't seem that bad. But I was upset. I do NOT like when things don't go as planned. Luckily, I can honestly say it all worked out.... spending time with my best friend/love of my life can never be considered a disaster.

The date:

• Dinner at Los Hermanos, including splurging and getting a yummy specialty drink.
• 2012 at the dollar theater.
• Oreo Milkshake from Hogi Yogi with an AMAZINGLY huge straw.

Let's hope I have better luck with my upcoming plans. Brett's b-day is on Monday and it is my year to plan the Valentines Day date.
