The food and the service were both good. We all got one of the $12.99 3-course dinner deals. Saran asked if TGI Fridays stood for Thank God It&#8217;s Friday. Others seem to think it meant Thank Goodness It&#8217;s Friday. I mean in the PC (politically correct) world, TGI Friday&#8217;s might&#8217;ve changed their acronym to mean &#8220;goodness&#8221;, but I always thought the &#8216;g&#8217; in TGIF was God. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.acronymfinder.com\/af-query.asp?String=exact&#038;Acronym=tgif&#038;Find=Find\">Acronym Finder<\/a> shows these as the top 3 acronyms for TGIF:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Thank God It&#8217;s Friday<\/li>\n<li>TGI Friday&#8217;s (US restaurant chain)<\/li>\n<li>Thank Goodness It&#8217;s Friday<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I&#8217;m pretty sure it started out as God, but to be politically correct, they may have changed it to Goodness. Sort of like how Kentucky Fried Chicken -> KFC -> Kitchen Fresh Chicken.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway we came back to my place to play some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/redirect?link_code=ur2&#038;tag=krunk4everblog-20&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;path=tg%2Fdetail%2F-%2FB00001ZT4D%2F\">Settlers of Catan<\/a>. Once again Perry wins. I didn&#8217;t really have much of a chance. My settlements were basing on the #6 which did not come up once for the 1st 6 or 7 circles (where everyone rolled once). I actually had it made if luck was on my side. I had 2 tree accesses, a 6 and a 9 and then a 2:1 tree deal. But unfortunately, luck wasn&#8217;t on my side as I stated. So near the end game, I basically went and did sabotage, I built through areas so Perry couldn&#8217;t built the longest road. Saran came and took the largest army from him. He was back down to 5 points, but somehow ended up coming back to win the game. It helped him a lot that he got more special developer cards (non-soldiers) than soldier cards. Guess luck was totally on his side.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, I went in to work. Our team is a bit behind and our lead thought it would be great if we could put in some time this weekend. I did get a lot done for some reason. Maybe cause there&#8217;s no one around to bother me and no one around for me to bother. Haha. I did get a free lunch out of it.<\/p>\n<p>As for Sunday, just met up with CDMCC and Elizabeth, had dinner, and then a movie.<\/p>\n<p>I actually finished vacuuming what I had unfinished the previous weekend. I did some house cleaning and my apartment&#8217;s looking pretty good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know it&#8217;s a bit late. In fact the weekend&#8217;s over already.
