It's True!!!

It came up in Modern Family, so it must be true. I've been saying it for years. I have my own anecdotes about it, but I have not had any hard evidence to support my theory. Today, it becomes one of the immutable laws of physics.

The quote, as it happened from Modern Family:

Claire: Haley sweetie, wake up. I need you to teach me how to use the tv.
Haley: Now? Why can't dad teach you?
Claire: Because we're married.

Now it must be true, because a prime time sitcom has recognized it to be so! You may ask now, "But Greg! Why do you know it's true?" The answer? Because I had to get somebody else to teach the Girl to drive a stick, and that's just the latest in the series.

Date Night

The girl and I just got back from date night. If you recall, I won free sneak preview tickets via 98 Rock to see Quarantine. So, we decided to head to The Melting Pot before the movie.

I came home early from work and we left to go to Towson. We walked around a bit before five, and then went to the Melting Pot. It was pretty cool. We did, however, make the mistake of actually ordering a meal. They give you a pot of cheese first, complete with veggies, bread, and apples to munch on. Then, a salad; we each had a Cobb salad. Then, the entrèe. This is where we made the mistake. There were all sorts of meats and such, and the plate was enormous, even for two people. Finally, dessert. We had to fit this in! Who doesn't want melted chocolate with marshmallow and Oreos? I do. :-)

Finally, we went to the flick. There's a story in and of itself in the movie, so stay tuned for a review.

It was all pretty great. It was a nice, long dinner I got to spend with the girl, and we both enjoyed it.
