Birthday with Omar

So Omar and I were able to celebrate my birthday on Tuesday. There is a place called the Alahambra dinner theater that lets the person who has a birthday go for free on their birthday. Since they are not open on Mondays that let me go on Tuesday when we would be back in town. The show that we went and saw was Annie. The whole shabang is kind of pricey. For Omar's ticket it cost $50, which with my ticket being free, it isn't that bad of a deal, $25/pp for dinner buffet and a show is not really beatable. The show was actually well done. We saw Annie and I think they did a good job. I guess there are only 5 dinner theaters left in the U.S. and we have one of them in Jacksonville. The food was decent, I wouldn't go for just the food though. They had roast beef, chicken, green beans, scalloped potatoes, rice, corn-on-the-cob, some sort of seafood dish, mac and cheese, coleslaw, rolls, salad. It was set up buffet style and there was also a desert bar with yellow cake, jello, 2 types of pudding, fruit salad, and peach cobbler.
It was interesting because you order your tickets in advance and are given specific seats. I was surprised our seats were so good, front and center really. The hostess sat us at a table that sits 4 and told us to sit next to each other because another coupule would be sharing the table with us. We thought it was a little weird but figured that it would be fine to get to know another couple. I was starving and ate some salad but saved a lot of it so the other couple could eat salad too. They came and sat down and were completely shocked that they would be sitting with us. Omar and I tried to be friendly and asked them questions about themselves and offered them salad to eat. They would not touch anything including their waters. They were the most akward people and completely dull. We finally were given permission to go and get our food from the buffet and when we came back the guy was sitting there with his plate and told us that they were trying to see if they could sit at their own table since things are akward. I told him that we both did not feel akward, but they were fine to move if they wanted to, no hard feelings. They sat somewhere else and we had more room and were much more comfortable for the show. It was an interesting evening to say the least. But we had a nice time.
