Some of my girlfriends were a little shocked that we had planned to go to Mr. Gatti's for our one year anniversary. They said, shouldn't y'all be doing something a little more, you know, romantic? But they didn't understand that, for us, romance isn't tied to things like white tablecloths and roses or whatever. Romance is smiles, and laughter, and good conversations. Romance is doing things together that you like. Romance is growing together in love for God and love for each other. Romance is experiencing life, together. So there's nothing about going to Gattiland that's inherently unromantic. On the contrary, it was perfect. :)
Now on a completely unrelated note...this is a really great year for my football teams. Both my Texas Tech Red Raiders and my Indianapolis Colts are undefeated so far. Yay! But Tech probably won't be undefeated after this weekend. We're playing Texas, in Austin! Yikes. Still, we've got a chance. In football, you always have a chance. And we're pretty talented this year. We'll see what happens.
Oh, and did any of you watch the NLCS Game 5, Cards vs. 'Stros, last night? I heard only the ninth inning on the radio, but it was enough. What a heartbreaker! The Astros were 1 out away from going to the World Series for the first time ever, but one hung slider, and whammo! It's time for Game 6. (Yeah, I know, technically it was a base hit, a walk, and then a hung slider, but regardless of the men on base, if Lidge had gotten Pujols to strike out/fly out/ground out/pop out/line out/ANY OLD OUT the game would have been over and the 'Stros would have won the pennant.) But that's baseball for you. Until that last out is recorded, anything can happen. I like that about the sport, I just wish the Astros had won. Oh well...they've got another chance. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow night...

Heck yes my Astros are in the Series! Yay!

Sounds like a great evening. You probably know this, but we used to go to Mr. Gattis all the time when we were younger. Pizza then Half Price Books (if I'm remembering correctly). Good times. Glad yall had fun. ;)

any given Saturday, lady! it could happen!
missed you last night at that small group i don't actually go to...
I like all Texas teams! That's what makes them mine! And yeah...so maybe going back to H-town will help with the whole winning thing? Lol. I gotta admit the game tonight (game 2) was fun to watch, even though we lost. :( I just love seeing the game played, I guess!
I've never heard of Gattiland. It sounds like some kind of Texan mafia place! LOL
You are absolutely right about romance. Romance can be flowers and moonlit nights but romance can also be plain quiet moments together doing nothing in particular.
