I, Kate Schwartz, officially give myself the honorary title of the "Worst Blogger in the World" 2013 edition. I would like to thank my lack of motivation and complete abundance of writer's block for granting me such an award. Here's to slapping my un-blogger self in the face and giving me the well deserved kick in the pants to start anew in the last quarter of the year. Thank you. And goodnight.

C is for...Chili's and Camping
C was the easy date for me. I knew from the very beginning it would be a chance for us to finally take our big camping trip we had been talking about all summer. Except, let's be real, we forgot to take into account our crazy, incompatible work schedules. Silly us. So instead, we took the long trip straight into our backyard [I mean c'mon, it is pretty much a wilderness back there]. We started the evening with a quick dinner trip to Chili's [fitting, I know] and then we set up our cute tent. And when I say we, I most definitely mean Jake. Do you what to know the best part about camping in your backyard? Easy access to power [and plumbing]. We took our cute pink extension cord, my laptop, and a bag of popcorn and watched ourselves a movie. In our tent. Perfect. We made it the entire night until around 6am when a sweet [stupid] adorable [ugly] crow decided to give us a morning caw - about a million times. You can see the crow in question at the tippy top of the tree in the last picture. The little guy made it all the more exciting to crawl into our bed and shut out the awful noise.

D is for...Donuts, Driving Range, Drive-thru, and Deleta
Yep, this is the only picture I got of us. Great.
We started the evening off by hitting up the new Donut Shop in Pocatello. My review? So/so. But the nice man did give us a free donut, so I can't complain too much. We then went to the driving range to hit a BUCKET of balls. I rolled my eyes at Jake when he first got the bucket, secretly thinking "My gosh, we are going to be here all night." But guess what? A bucket of balls does not last that long! Why? The driving range is fun guys! Especially when you can spy on the teenyboppers on a date next to you. Teenage boys showing teenage girls how to hit a golf ball? Hilarious. We then went to Deleta - Pocatello's premier Skateland. Too bad they decided to not be open to the public on Monday nights. Stupid Deleta. We ended the night with a quick drive-thru stop at Sonic for our favorite drinks. [We can't go to Sonic without thinking of Sweet Baby M]. My husband, he plans awesome date nights.

E is for...El Herradero and Eight Ball
And so we begin with the hard letters. E? E took some planning. And Googling. To be honest, I was worried about this letter. I thought the date would be dull. I mean, how many games of pool can you play? But you know what? This was one of my favorite dates we have done so far. We laughed. We sang to the jukebox. We teased. And it was fun. So fun. Even dinner was fun. I usually hate Mexican food, but this restaurant happened to be so yummy. That is what I love about our ABC dating...it is making us try so many different things we normally wouldn't do.
