Day: May 17, 2003

When you’re pushing 30, married, and a homeowner, things take on a different meaning for you. Let’s take yesterday’s events for instance. J and I finally made it out of the house at around 4. I swear, no one can piss a day away better than we can. Our first stop was for dinner- yes, at approx. 4:30pm we ate dinner. I tell ya, we’re almost ready for shuffleboard and plaid pants. It was my first time at the Cheesecake Factory. We had a gift card from J’s parents as an Easter gift. I was surprised that at that early hour the place was packed and there was already a wait. Luckily, since there was just the 2 of us we were seated right away. The food was good, and of course the cheesecake was yummy (we had the key lime). While at the mall we stopped in to Bath & Body Works so I could pick up my chosen summer scent: their new Coconut Lime Verbena. It smells really nice. Not as sweet as the Creamy Coconut that I wore last summer, and this one has a little kick from the lime.

After the mall we stopped at Costco for a few things, then Target, then Sam’s. That’s when J says to me “Hey look, it’s Friday night and we’re club hopping. Discount Warehouse Clubs, that is. We are so old and lame.” After all the shopping I asked if he’d like to get a movie but he said “Nah, it’s already almost 9.” I guess I’d better go ahead and put in a call to Shady Acres retirement home!
