Date Night

Tonight was date night.  This was the conversation I had taking the babysitter home.

Babysitter:  Did you have a nice date?

Me: Yes, it was nice.

Babysitter:  What did you guys do?

Me:  Well, we went to the high school and watched a movie.

Babysitter: In Mr. K's classroom?

Me: Yes.  On the projector.

Babysitter:  What movie did you guys watch?

Me: Well... it wasn't really a movie.  We go to bed at 10 pm, so we miss watching Castle on tv.  So we watch episodes online.

Babysitter: Oh.  Sounds fun.

Me: Yep.

Aren't we just so lame?  We picked up a hot chocolate at McD's and then watched a tv episode on the projector in Ryan's classroom sitting in our camp chairs for our 90 minute date before heading home to put the kids to bed.  But how do I explain trying to be creative on a (small) budget to a 16-year-old?

Ha Ha Ha Ha! That is perfect. Hey, we might borrow that idea and head to my husbands work to watch a movie. Funny!
