"Just Say No", to Cotton Eye Joe

Tonight was Date Night with my boyfriend
His new work schedule keeps us apart most week nights (even some Fridays)
So Saturdays and Sundays are becoming our new routine, with a weekly lunch, a new IM account (for him) a family plan cell phone account for unlimited calls and texts and nightly skype calls :)

Anyways, we ended up at Texas Road House, I had never been nor will I ever go again
I felt like I was attending a 10 year olds Birthday Party
No one could pay me enough to force someone to ride a saddle while screaming that they are celebrating their birthday OR to line dance for the ENTIRE 4 minute song of Cotton Eye Joe
I find these types of situations extremely uncomfortable and am mortified for these employees (and even mortified for myself to be sitting amongst the chaos)

My boyfriend deems this as me being "high maintenance" scolding that I just need to "loosen up"
I on the other hand enjoy more of an intimate ambiance especially when I don't get to see him as much as I am used to
I don't enjoy screaming over Cotton Eye Joe, "WHAT?!!!" while trying to have a conversation, nor do I enjoy the sound of "crunch, crunching" of peanut shells as I walk to and from my table
Is it me??

We still managed to have a pleasant evening, I guess it really does come down to the company you keep and the fact that when you're dining with one you love, you're much more able to drown everything and everyone out, even the headache inducing sound of that god awful Cotton Eye Joe
