Incredible Monday!

James got in yesterday from his trip to Las Vegas and was off today. He dropped me off for class- I got my latest paper back and was pleasantly surprised to find that he had given me a forty-eight out of fifty. I can live with that. I was surprised I didn't get a worse grade, I was so out of it from my allergies at the time that I was working on it. That and I was little stressed out from finding out that my friend, Chris had rushed to Kaiser because of chest pains. I was just pleased that I managed to get it done and figured I did a passable job on it and would deserve whatever grade he gave me. I'm happy with my grade. Stopped by for a quick hello to Dragon and then ran off to meet up with James.
We had a less than satisfactory dinner at Tony Roma's over by the Union City theatre. The lettuce in the salad tasted way past its prime (pretty wilted), this drink that I ordered (that was supposed to be a chocolate liquer, vodka, and raspberry or something like that) was served to me hot of all things and definitely had coffee in it. Don't you think a drink menu should make some mention of the fact that it's served hot and has coffee as an ingredient?! The chocolate martini they served me to replace it was pretty weak and unimpressive. My steak was really dry. Thank goodness for the french fries. I don't think I'm going to be terribly interested in returning there anytime soon. Our server was very nice though.
The movie more than made up for a poor dinner; "The Incredibles" was incredible! Such an awesome movie. All the effects looked great: the hair, the fabric, the backgrounds, their hair when it gets wet. I loved ElastiGirl and the way she moved and stretched. Frozo (?), Samuel L. Jackson's character was very cool. That's all I'm going to say, I don't want to spoil anything for anyone. Go see it!
Got home and there was a message from James' mother saying that his boss had called for him, asking him to come in earlier tomorrow morning so James had to leave earlier than originally planned. Pout. Stupid boss, won't do any of the big set-ups himself. What a shmuck. Apparently another manager was very surprised that Sean had James handling some of the stuff that he does and yet he's completely retarded his training so that James couldn't be given his own store.
After James left I listened to some Loreena McKennitt while doing laundry and cooking something for tomorrow. I made a pasta dish with pesto sauce, broccoli, prosciutto, and chicken. I just finished the dishes a bit ago.
