Okay Folks,

I’ve just finished looking at the Menu for Outback and I figured I should give everyone a “what to expect” as far as price goes.

Appetizers are around $5.00-$8.00 (I don’t often order them, as they’re the size of a meal and then…why order a meal?).

A regular meal (not like, lobster tail) is around $11.00-$18.00 (obviously, the fancier stuff is slightly more pricey) and I think dessert is included in most meals.

Alcoholic drinks are what they are and since it’s a resteraunt, will be slightly more pricey than a regular bar (on a side note, Massachussets has some weird blue laws about bringing alcohol into the hotel room on your own…just a general heads up…however, for our conveience, there’s a bar down in the lobby).

So per person plan on spendinng:

I. Meal with a drink and appetizer: $25.00

II. Meal with a drink or two, no appetizer: $21.00

III. Meal with a soda, no drink, no appetizer: $15.00

So I think it can fit into everyone’s budget providing we stay away from Lobster Tail (and honestly, if we’re having Lobster together, I’d rather it be at my house on The Island at some later date, where I’ll show you how to cook it right…you see, first, you have to chase someone around with the lobster to get it nice and fresh…).

People I have listed as interested are:

Me (myself, and I)

Anne (and crew)

Marian (and crew)

Liz (and leather skirt)

Margot

Of course, my general rule is “play it by ear” so it’s nice to have plans…but they’re always subject to change.

Marian…I hope you’re bringing the rubber chicken…I’m bringing a few myself…

And, time for bed.

G’night all.

June 2007…London?

Okay…so I found out that the IPA offers an examination twice a year (Info can be found here)…the kicker is that as far as I can tell, it’s only offered in London. I don’t think getting funding will be too much of an issue; with grants, I could get funding to play game boy for a year (and let me tell you, a year of pokemon does sound mighty tempting).

But I’m thinking, I have off of Spring Semester 07 since I’ll be graduating in the Fall…and while I don’t have much of a draw to Europe (there’s many more places that are on the list first) I really, really love taking examinations (it’s a sickness, I know)…especially when they come with pieces of paper upon passing (speaking of which, I really need to get work done for my esperanto course).

So maybe June 2007 will be reserved for London. We’ll see =)
