Check out these beautious pumpkins that are in the window display at Bop! I'm obsessed. I think I may go out tomorrow and buy the necessary materials to replicate that blingy one.

This is Shari. She turned 29, so we went to The Icon, which is apparently our cold weather bar of choice. It was just so great to get together with just the girls and talk and laugh. It is rare that all of our schedules allow us to be at the same place at the same time, but on Wednesday it happened. So yeah, that was all well and good, but let's get back to the real issue here. She turned 29!! You know what this means? 29 is right around the corner for me too. Make it stop!

Saturday was the most anticipated shopping weekend of my year. Maxwell Street Days. This year Meghan and Tom joined in the fun with Jon and me. The sale officially runs from Friday-Sunday, but word on the street (Nancy) is that some stores started on Thursday. What?! We were not 1, but 2 days behind all the greatest deals. I have taken note of this for next year.

Back to Saturday.

We used my camera as a mirror most of the day since everything is on the street and mirrors were hard to come by. I believe this was right after Meghan took her pants off in the middle of State Street to try on a dress actually. Yup. That would be correct. (tee hee hee)

As for this picture...it may need some explaining, right? Meghan is making a 'b' with her hand. You know, b for Bula (the brand of these hats). I mean, Bula is quite possibly the best hat brand around - didn't you know? You best run out and get yourself one. (side note: obviously the ASL Meghan and I learned in college didn't kick in right away, because it wasn't until after we took the picture that we realized this was not the correct sign for 'B'.)

We all came away with a lot of good loot. My best buy of the day were a pair of Asics for $40. Meghan's was probably her $35 Michael Kors flats. Tom's: an Adidas track jacket for $30 (?)...and Jon would argue his were some plaid Quicksilver loafer things, but I think his was a pair of Rainbow moccasins for $30.

I have very few pics to choose from for this day...this is the only one that turned out half way decent.

We got together for some Monday night margaritas at Frida's...because why not, right?

Friday night. State Street.

We did some eating, people watching and ice creaming. (recommended: Chocolate Shoppe French Silk ice cream)

I went out with Shari, El and Nancy on Monday night...and dangit, it had been too long since we got together last. We went around the table and took turns telling about our latest life developments. And we LAUGHED! There is nothing like the kind of laughter you have with a group of friends. Am I right? Yes, I am right.

El and Shari posed for a couple shots for me, but this blooper style one was my favorite. The lighting and overall cheesiness did it for me. That and the fact that their ensembles were exactly the same colors.

I headed down to State Street this morning to check out the big sale at Sportsworld. (this is the little grocery store across the street) Despite spending about 45 mins in that tiny store, I didn't get anything. I wanted a lot, but didn't really need anything. See how I well I am doing!

It was a great day...cold, but sunny and pleasant. Starbucks always makes things a little bit better too.
