renegade of longhorn!

 
Here it is, another outing with the physicist come and gone, and all I have to show for it is a photograph of the food.
Seriously.
We were there four hours!!!
We shut the place down!!!
And, yet, I never managed to get a single photo of me and him together???
Apparently so. 
Sure, Longhorn closes at 10 PM on Wednesdays, so that's still fairly early.
But, the thing is, here's the thing: we'd been there since 6 PM and were done with the meal shortly after 8.
The waitress didn't mind, though, as the section was clearing out around us.
We weren't being loud or obnoxious, we were just talking... and talking... and talking.
We do that every time we get together.
(smile!)
I talked a little bit about my bday67 Girls' Trip, but he truly doesn't like anything that has to do with children, so I let that lapse after a brief recap.
Mostly, we talked about adult things, like the need for wills and power of attorneys, things that parents have that non-parents also need.
He spoke of his trip to see friends in New York, friends whose children are now in their teens, and the baseball games he had to go to with them.
He spoke of Jeannette, a petsitter he met, who makes $100,000 yearly at that job.
That tied in nicely with my Dane-sitting that I'd done, as well as the cat-sitter fees he gave Lea's daughter for watching Emily.
He spoke of the six days he spent in OhiO visiting his parents, trying to make it a worthwhile trip as he hasn't seen them in years.
We talked about various religions, ranging from Buddhism to Judaism, from Church of Christ to Pentecostal, from Methodist to Unitarian Universalist.
That was a very cool chat!
I'm so glad the bfe has such a good time talking to with me!
By the way, I'm one of four non-business people he talks to on the phone.
I know how much he dislikes being on the phone, so that makes me special.
(smile!)

Oh, I forgot to talk about what I ate there!
I tried the Renegade Steak... and it was divine!!!
Very lean, no marbling, no gristle, with an excellent meaty texture!
That sirloin cut reminded me of the excellent steaks I'd had in Panama.
Very good to know about the Renegade!
