Yes it's Ladies Night...

On Thursday night I think I went on my first real "Ladies Night." Wow, I know. I am going to be 25 soon, and I just had my first ladies night. Lori and I made really good friends with a new girl at work named Emily, and just as soon as we start becoming really good friends with her, she decides to move away to Yellowstone National Park (crazy I know). Anyways, she was like the perfect person to talk about art with because she too is an artist like me. All of my friends from art school moved far and away and then Mel moved away with Brandon. So it has been nice having someone to doodle with and discuss art with. Lori, Emily and I decided to have one final outing before she leaves.

Emily found out that Strike City downtown at the Epicenter had half price martinis on ladies night on Thursdays. They also have bowling too, plus your shoes are free on Thursday if you are a lady. Once Lori and I got off from work at 9pm we set out for the light rail. This was my first experience with the light rail and I have to say it is really nifty! It was no time and we were at the Epicenter and we didn't even have to walk far, it was right there as we got off from the train.

I haven't bowled in a long time. We went a few Sunday's with Chad's parents a a few years ago, but it had been a while. The first few throws, I made strikes, and then there were more strikes, and a couple of gutter balls, and a few spares, and I won! Yay! I wasn't even really trying, maybe it was the alcohol? I don't know but we had so much fun, I hate that this was our last outing at least for 6 months until Emily comes home. But it was so much fun. I forgot to tell you, for some reason after each one of our turns it would tell each one of us Happy Birthday. it never failed, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday. This group of a few guys and a girl set up in the lane beside of us just before we finished and they noticed it was our birthday apparently? We told them that no it wasn't our birthday. Just as we were changing our shoes our waitress brought out 10 shots I think, a "Red-headed slut" for us all! It was so funny, and something we won't soon forget. I think it made all of our nights. A few great martinis and a "Red-headed slut!"

What a fun first Ladies Night! I hope we can go back to Strike City for my bachelorette party. I keep dropping my sista hints. We'll see! I hope you all have a lovely weekend! Chad and I are finally going to buy his wedding band today! Yay! Date Night! I am so excited! I was marking off the days for the wedding at work on the schedule and the days for our honeymoon and it hit me then, "this is it!" I am probably going to be crazy nervous that day, just about 2 months away, ahhh!!!
