weekend with marlana

marlana & i were finally able to line up our schedules in the middle of july. i drove down on saturday morning. she made me lunch (that's right, she cooked for me. i know!), and we headed to the outlet mall for a little shopping. we both got some cute clothes, which we happily showcased at dinner that evening. :) we had to wait quite awhile for our table, and we began discussing the White Pants Issue. where you do stand on this? are white pants good or bad on women? on men? do you wear them?

after dinner we had some margaritas & watched the movie version of RENT. marlana saw the stage version earlier this year, but hadn't seen the movie, yet. then we crashed for the night; got up sunday and met marisa for lunch. it's been more than two years since i've seen marisa (two years?! ugh ... time flies.), so that was fabulous. i got to meet her little boy and take a tour of their house.

compared to a lot of people, i still talk to a lot of my friends from high school. i am blessed to have been surrounded by people who i still love so dearly.
