It is all Greek to me

Yep it is Friday once again and quite frankly I seem to have lost the track of time. With the Christmas holidays and New Year's Eve and people coming to visit I am a bit confused. I got up this morning thinking it was Tuesday.

After our last guest left yesterday morning we picked up my friend last night. We used to be roommates for quite a while and all I can say about her is that she rocks. We went out to dinner with the hubby and another friend, both of whom were smitten with her.

We went to our favorite Greek restaurant where the hubby ordered the Sokrates platter as he always does. In the middle of dinner he urged me to get up and let him out, his lips pressed tightly together. I thought he was joking. He wasn't.
He emerged from the men's a short while later and resumed dinner. When we got the following conversation ensued:

Me: Are you okay? What was wrong with you at the restaurant?
Him: "It is so weird but every time I eat this dish I feel like I need to puke."
Me: (frowning and probably having questionmarks in my eyes) Did you actually puke?
Him: "No, not really"
Me: Why did you go to the men's then?
Him: "I thought I was going to puke"
Me: Why did you stay so long then?
Him: "Oh I just burped and tried to not puke"
Me: Has it ever occured to you not to eat that dish anymore if it doesn't agree with your stomach?
Him: "Yes but it is so delicious I can't help it."
Me: ???

I was speechless. That man loves himself the Sokrates platter so he shall have it. Next time I am going to let him sit near the loos though.
