Ladies' Night

Elise finally got back from her photo shoot and we all decided to have some girl-time. We went to a spa for the first part of the day where we got massages and pedicures which were topped off with a really awesome lunch at a French place across the street. We all ordered the French onion soup and it was SO fantastic. After that we decided to go shoe shopping for a few hours and I got three pairs of shoes. One is a black patent leather bootie with a white lace overlay, a pair of subtle kitten heel Mary Janes, a pair of white 6-inch strappy stilettos. Elise only found one pair she wanted, but they were probably the coolest shoes any of us found, they have these deep blue rhinestones that go down the 4-inch heel while the rest of the shoe fades to white as you reach the toe. Zoey bought some basic pumps in basic colors, and Anna didn’t find anything she fell in love with and wanted to buy.

After shopping for so long we took in a movie nearby that all of us just loved to death and then followed it up with a late dinner at a pizza place.

“So, I’m dating Kevin…” I said to the group while we waited for our pizza.

“And? How’s the sex?” Elise asked, trying to control her excitement.

I paused.

“I mean….you have done it right?” Elise looked at me completely perplexed.

“Almost…” I said. I really wanted to avoid having to go into the details of the night we almost had sex and possibly bring up Anna’s recent miscarriage, as well.

“Faith, you were so into him when you were with Dean. You were having SEX DREAMS about him! How have you not jumped him yet?” Elise got a stare from a couple nearby who were on a first date and Anna shushed her jokingly.

“We just…haven’t. He hasn’t really brought up the issue since we had ‘the talk’ and we’ve been pretty tame with the affection. Maybe he thought about it and wants to take things slow, I’m okay with that.”

We moved on to Zoey who shared that she had a date for the first time since her last relationship and we were all very happy for her. Our pizza came and we scarfed it down in a matter of minutes because it was so delicious. The day was perfect.
