"Girl's Shopping Day"

My bff and I have been so busy for the past couple of months that we haven't had a chance to relax and have some fun. So we picked out this Saturday to go shoppiing at Annapolis Mall and then rest up and head out to our favorite hangout, Half Note Lounge later that night.

Well, we started out early in rainy weather and arrived at the mall at 9:30 am only to find the garage was pretty filled up. When we got inside there was an Easter egg hunt in progress and kids were all over the place. We grabbed breakfast at Chick-fil-A to get our energy going before hitting the stores. We started at Macy's and picked up the cutest shoes before going to Express, Victoria's Secret and some other stores to get some tops and other accessories. We almost shopped till we dropped! Then we headed home to rest up for a fun night.

Later, we arrived at Half Note Lounge a little after 8 pm and the parking lot was surprising empty for a Saturday night. We looked at each other and thought "wow, folks are staying home tonight because of the rain." No problem, we walked in and then settled into two seats at the bar and ordered two pink lemonades (these really creep up on you) before starting up conversations with other folks at the bar. The musical artist, Sharon Thomas, saxophonist and her band performed and we had a great time out on the dance floor, so much so that we left when the club closed. Now that's what I call having a good time - Can't wait until the next adventure!!
