Next time it literally feels over 100 degrees outside, you might want to ask for a hotel room that is lower than the 19th floor. Because even though you might try to give it the benefit of the doubt, the older-than-my-grandmother building never cools down. Even after it gets dark. The room will stay uncomfortably warm. Not recommended for a pregnant woman. And don't even bother complaining to the front desk at 5:30am that the room is unbearable because "the room engineers were here until 2am. you should have called sooner". And don't think for a second that you can fall back asleep after waking up fully at 5:30am. HGTV just may become your friend as well...
Oh and when you decide on a nice, fancier-type Italian restaurant, you might want to wait to order your entree after you are served your appetizer. Because the kitchen may mess up your order and send out your entree before you have been served your appetizer. Which brings up the dilemma- which do you eat first? Do you leave your entree to munch on the appetizer, all the while certain that your entree is losing heat? Cappelini with shrimp doesn't taste as well when it's lukewarm. Trust me. Or do you finish your entree while your appetizer becomes too soggy to enjoy? Well you might end up scarfing everything in order for it to taste okay. And then that defeats the purpose of a nice, drawn-out, romantic dinner for two.
I guess it's a good sign that despite all the mishaps over our anniversary weekend, Seth and I still had a wonderful time together. We thoroughly enjoyed each other's company and know that pretty soon we will be able to laugh over the hotel debacle. Right now it's a little too soon. I just might need some therapy...
