Day with the girls!!
So yesterday I had a full day with a couple girls from work and some grade school friends.
I was picked up at 11:40 and we headed down to Gig Harbor for some shopping. I was way out of my tax bracket. Ann Taylor, J. Jill, Chico, way out of my element. Then we went to the Twilight movie. There were 6 of us total at the movie. This was my second time seeing it (even though I don't really care for it). We hung at Panera Bread chatting for a bit.
We went and had dinner at El Goucho in Tacoma. Again out of my typical price range but it is a girls night right? The food was amazing!! (also amazingly expensive) I had a Flirtini martini (super yummy), a baked potato, and a flaming sword of tenderloin. This was the least expensive beef item on the menu. They have steaks over $100!!! I made it out of there after tax and time for $55. (mine was the smallest bill out of all the girls) Then off to the concert!!
SO, New Kids on the Block as my first band that I really liked. I had the dolls, bedspread, posters, buttons, tapes, movies, all the above. When a girl at work said they were coming to Tacoma and wanted to know if I wanted to go I was like 'sure!". I am so glad I went. They put on a great concert. They sang songs from their new album and "classics" from 15 years ago. The dome was packed with 20 somethings and up, but had you been just listening, we were all screaming like teenage girls. They sang for 2 hours and we danced the whole time!! I got home about 1 am. It was all worth it.
I had never been to a concernt with my girlfriends. The last concert I went to was Prince with Talon. I'm not a huge fan of Prince, but Talon is. Prince is an amazing artist and I really respect his talent. This was my girls night and it was a much needed estrogen fix. It was absolutely wonderful to be 12 again. :)
