Birthday Coupons

Posted on October 24, 2008 by under Life.    

It’s a shame that we are leaving tomorrow. I just realized I had several birthday coupons to redeem and they all expire on November 6! =P

  • McAlister’s, Abuelo’s and Red Lobster have all sent me $5 off coupons.
  • Logan’s Roadhouse is offering a free Nutter Butter Fudgeslide dessert thing.
  • Cold Stone Creamery is offering a free Cold Stone creation.

Of course, I got some better ones from Outback and Bonefish totally unrelated to my birthday. Outback and Bonefish both sent $10 off coupons if we use our Bank of America World Points credit card. Sometimes I wish I could eat out as much as I want without gaining poundage.

Ching and Brian Circa 2003

I found these photos in my old Fotolog. It’s where I kept my photos before switching to Flickr. I love looking at old photos. They bring back so many wonderful memories.

When I showed Brian these old pictures he goes, “Man! I miss my old TV.”

“You mean the one you chainsaw’d into a million tiny pieces?” I asked.

“It quit working!” He protested.

I had gotten that TV for him as a birthday present in 2001, before we were married. I have no idea why it quit working. I know my dad has a similar TV that is even older and it is still working. I guess we are just rough on stuff. =P
