Memorial Day

Shh... I have a little secret that I am going to share with you. I don't like traveling on Memorial Day weekend. I like staying home and hanging local. I guess, when it is nice out here there is a lot to do. We have awesome beaches, north and south, that take about an hour to get to. The other thing is that everyone leaves and the city becomes kind of calm. You can walk into a restaurant at 8:30 and sit, you can park a car on the street (city people know what I mean) and most importantly there are amazing sales everywhere. All the little boutiques have some major discounted stuff and no one is town so it is just you getting all the goods. I think my most favorite thing about Memorial Day is having Monday off, so Sunday happy hour is much more pleasant without the whole work thing hanging over your head.

How many people are going to see SATC this weekend or were you a die hard that went last night (eek)? I think I am going to hold out a few days until the chaos settles down. Hopefully, no one will leak or spoil it for me.

I always go up to my sister's in Sag on Memorial Day. Although, friends have told me the the city is a great place to be! It is fleet week, although men in uniform do nothing for me at all!
Have fun!

I am holding out for a couple days also! All I have heard are the reviews who said the movie was not very good. But who cares what the reviewers say, they are usually old men!! I can't wait!

Me too! Same goes for 4th of July and New Year's... it's just such a headache. I'd rather be home with my friends :-)
