Always good service

I have to say I am impressed with my husband and my fave Mexican Restaurant, which is Don Pablo’s. Every time we go in we always get great service. We have never had a problem with their waitstaff. It’s a great place to go on our date night, and we can relax there. I do have to admit I feel sorry for our waitress last night because hubby and I had more interest in talking about trivial things then tell her what we wanted to eat. She handle it good and give us a few minutes.
I order the 2 combo meal, and had a cheese and onion enchilada and that yummy corn bread. I love the corn bread there, it always served warm with some cheese on top and it has a pleasant sweet taste of corn. The second enchilada was chicken. They served me rice, I am not a big fan of rice. For the most I just do not like the texture of it but I can handle rice cereal. The rice was pretty good there, I ate it all, so it must of been pretty good.
I have noticed there salsa is pretty potent even through it is supposed to be mild but I still love it. It wouldn’t surprise me if I saw salsa on a list of
weight loss supplement reviews. I am sure it probably a good help since it healthy and taste good too. It’s good for the sinus too.
The only catch up last night was when our waitress gave us the ticket for the party next to us. Normally our bill would be 20 something but she handed me a bill for 65 I just about had a fit. We told her that that ticket was ours, she looked at it and said so too, and told us she get us the right one. She did very good at taking care of our orders and fixing the minor problems there was. She was very helpful.

Our new Sony Bravia

A couple weeks ago we finally got our new HDTV. It was the Sony Bravia Series KDL-32XBR9, the first night with it we had to do with out Tv, because my satellite box didn’t want to work, but the next day we got it back. It was very easy to pick the TV, it’s 1080P has 4 HDMI connections to the Tv and 3 other HD connection. The four HDMI was something Hubby and I really wanted because we have a Xbox369, PS3 and a Progressive DVD player. We were pretty excited after seeing the games play on it. Hubby wanted to just play games with 1080 capabilities.
The next day I got the TV working for Satellite, Oh my goodness, some people really do best acne treatment, or something. I was shocked how a few of the people I watch during the day aren’t as attractive as I used to think them to be on the hold TV. I know this sounds mean, but it just shocking. The TV shows a lot more of the flaws in people, or landscapes, then normal TV would. The pictures on the game system have been made a lot easier to play, especially reading the text in the game. My hubby old TV had the same size screen but some of the games which were made for HDTV the words were impossible to read even with good eyes. The HDTV helped that too. I am so glad, we decided to go with the HDTV.
It’s amazing what people actually looks like. Some days it just surprises me. Sometimes I have notice the news stations have their camera further back now, and it harder to see their people maybe they do this so people can’t tell what they actually look like.

My Ideal Cruise Vacation

I would love to go on a cruise, it’s something hubby and I wanted to do for our honeymoon but that didn’t happen. Lately I have been working very hard to complete college, and take care of hubby’s dad; sometimes I have visit websites which have cruises on, too see if maybe we can save up for a short get away. I would love to get away from home, from school and work.
The perfect cruise would be a place where we can fish, and spend time watching the sea birds fly overhead catching their meals. I would love to be able to see crystal clear water to watch the fish swim by and maybe do some scuba diving at a beginner’s level. I have never been scuba diving but it sure does look fun, and I love seeing animals in their natural habitat.
For nightly entertainment having a quite low stress candle light dinner together with my husband would be great. A dinner where hubby and I could show up when we’re hungry and not worry about making reservation, since we like to run late on dinner. My husband loves to sing, so he would be in heaven if we could do karaoke. The perfect cruise would be my husband and I being simply able to spend time together with neither one of us working on the computer, or with our computers in our lap, but simply paying attention to each other. It would be great to simply be able to spend time with hubby without worrying about what needs to be done next. A Caribbean cruises would help the two of us; take a break and recharge some wore out batteries. There is one place we have found that is where hubby and I can just spend time together and catch fish. I’ve decided to add a picture of me holding small baby fish, having a great time on a dock. One of the few places I love to spend time with him, where it’s just him, I and dad.

Don't worry he went back to grow up.

Back to Ultimate Electronics

I am going to wait a couple days to write about my new HDTV. My husband and I decided to look at Ultimate Electronics, they where the ones who had the perfect Tv for us. We look at 2 other places, I was welling to settle for one at another place but it was missing something we felt was important. So we went to ultimate electronics, and it seems their advertising is true, the Tv we got was 5$ lower then at the other place with the same model.
When it’s time to purchase a tv it’s important to work with a person with a lot of knowledge about their products, just like if you’re moving you want an experienced long distance movers. We had a young lady this time, I had a couple of concerns getting this TV, with an power surge protector power supply. My worry was the TV and everything would send out a lot of EMF (Electro Magnitic Field), I am sensitive to this. I have a very hard time driving near electric plants with over head lines, or areas with alot of electrical stuff. It’s unpleasant for the most I ignore it as much as possible. So when we buy new things I want to know how likey is this going to cause me to get up in the middle of the night and throw the breaker off. Yes I do that, and don’t even know I done it. It’s hard to explain what’s going on when it gets to much..
So we asked many questions about the TV, and about if it was energy saving and meet the requirements. We asked questions about what kindof umd cable to get, and everything it took us close to an hour. We ended up with a 32 in Sony Bravia TV. I won’t say what I think yet. We ended up leaving with 1 10 gig umd cable, 1 tv and 1 power supply. We found out something interesting while there, their 4 year service plan is 130 and in 4 years if it doesn’t get used at all then you get back 65$ at the end.
I was very pleased with the customer service we recieved and was once again impressed by how their staff treated us. I would recommend Ultimate Electronics so far everytime I went in there the staff is knowledgeable and welling to help.

Not very good

Today I had to stop at the gas station near work. I wasn’t able to eat lunch today and had to stop there before work. I got 2 chicken rollers and one cheese roller. The chicken was okay, I didn’t have a problem with them. The Cheese rollers were nasty to stay the less. It didn’t tast right to me, and the cheese didn’t seemed cook through enough.
Today was one of those days I wished I would have just saved my money because I ended up going home early any how. Gas station food is normally not good food but it does get me through a binch when I have them.
I got home today at 230 and had to work on homework and then go and meet a friend. Boy I wish I had a swing sets on my balcony. I guess maybe the balcony is to small but it be nice to have one to swing on.
