Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Overall - the girls weekend was so much fun and a much needed break for all of us. We didn't even let the REALLY cold and rainy weather hold us back. Here's the weekend in a nutshell:

Met up with the girls Friday evening and went to dinner at Bacco's. The 4 of us had a blast giggling at the menu- Them was some mightly tasty paperdoll telephones. Then we went downtown and checked into our hotel. We were rollin' in the big daddy party wagon for the weekend and wouldn't you know it - I scraped the damn thing trying to get out of this itty bitty parking lot!! Next, we were off to Tommy Condon's for some fine Irish music by Steve Carroll and the Bograts! So much fun! We sang along and I even got to get on stage with them! Better than that, they played my favorite song, "The Unicorn," (see Tunes below)just like when I was there 12 years ago!!
Saturday we shopped, shopped, shopped despite the rain. We had a mini-party in White House - Black Market trying on things. We shopped all the way down King Street to Cupcake for some treats! We hopped a trolley back to the hotel and then took a nap! Next it was off to dinner at Social. It was very good, even if the waitress wasn't. Then we got word that that my friend's 2 year-old son had an accident so we jumped a cab to the hospital! Even though he had surgery/stitches, he ended up being OK and was home by morning. So, the remaining 3 of us went to Wet Willies and back to Tommy Condon's. It was fun, but just not the same... We shopped a little more the next morning, had lunch and then hit the road for home!
Hotel stay for 1 person... $112
dinner,drinks, shopping ...$125
repair van damage... $560
weekend with old frinds... priceless!
