Black Friday
Nov. 27th, 2009 11:42 pmSo we were out of the house by 3:30 and at the stores by 4am. We scored pretty well today. JP got a Playstation 3 (!!!) and we also got a big cat tower at a good price for the kitties. Also bought some comforters/quilts, lots of clothes (I love Old Navy), and a handful of DVDs. All in all, a pretty good haul. Came home in the early afternoon and passed out.
Tonight I went to visit Nay-nay, who is staying at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort which is, I kid you not, the swankiest place I have ever been to! In the main lobby there are two huge fireplaces that had been lit. They had a confectioner sculpt life-size deer out of white chocolate for a display as well as several gingerbread houses on all the tables and desks. There were familes hanging out, playing board games and outside by the pool they were having a do-it-yourself smores party (yum). In one of the ballrooms they were playing several movies and had free popcorn. After all this, we wound up at the bar having ridiculously overpriced drinks and lots of unshelled peanuts. Totally awesome. I am going back someday and gate-crashing for reals...
