"Chris! Chris! Chris!", "I'M BUSY!", "I'm busy too stupid dick!" - Samantha James in Just Friends

So I inserted my foot into my mouth last night.  I went out to dinner with the American friend of B's.  Dominic brought his friend Martin to dinner.  As we were sitting down, I casually asked where Peter was (Peter being Dominic's boyfriend), Martin pipes up that second wives are not allowed tonight as he is the first wife and is slowly dawned on me that Martin is THE Martin who Dominic used to live with.  Well hell, how the hell would I know?  It's not everyday that you would bring your ex-boyfriend to your own birthday dinner...SHIT...then they proceeded to argue in rapid fire German for the remainder of the meal.  I should have just ordered popcorn and watched it unfold in front of me.  I felt kind of bad but oh well...

Part one of school ends tomorrow.  And Im so behind with studying.  I have to really bone up on my German to ensure that I can keep up with part 2...we're planning a little party during class tomorrow so I decided to make chocolate chip cookies from scratch.  For all of you haters out there...SHUT IT...I can bake something like that.  I couldnt think of anything American to bring to the potluck other than going to the McDonalds in the train station and ordering a bag full of burgers.  B comes home on Monday and it cant be a day too soon.  I am bored to tears being alone.  In spite of myself, Ive been hooked on Gilmore Girls and have been watching it religiously and Im hooked on this show called Property Ladder from the UK wherein this lady who used to be a property developer advises potential property developers on how best to market, rehab and sell their properties...I know...full life I lead eh?  Next time, I'll lie and tell you all about the places I've been the champagne I've drunk and the movie starts Im hobnobbing with!

BTW, We were in Belgium three weeks ago and finally bought a dining room table!  It's an English Regency style table that can seat 10 people and is about 110 years old and is supposed to be delivered soon.  One by one Im starting to get this place into shape.  Im trying to turn this into a SHOWPLACE!
