Every Wed. evening my SO and I go to our favorite bar for steak night. We've been going there for about a year now.

Could this be his way of letting us know that I have been read or am I making a big deal out of nothing. (as usual). Won't stop me from going there, after all it is the best $8.95 New York strip in town. Still the OCD in me won't let me forget it.
What do you think? Just more paranoia or am I on to something?
