Hello, my lovely friends!
I’m so sorry there wasn’t a blog yesterday I completely spaced it out. I finally figures it out mid-afternoon and it was too late to put something up because I was out all day and night.
Late Friday night I was up doing things as usual and “the guy” who proposed texted me to tell me out tickets for Chicago were for Saturday afternoon and not Sunday like I thought. A little panic set in because I thought it was on Sunday. So I figured out what I was wearing and got some things together to make it easier for me in the morning. Saturday morning I wake up and guess what is going on? It’s snowing, A LOT! They said a couple of inches, but it was more like four inches. While getting ready the snow was coming down heavier to the point that I looked up the theater to see if the weather was going to cancel the show, but no.
He came and picked me up and off we went. Once we got out of the neighborhood streets the roads were clear. We got there with plenty of time and picked up some McDonald’s to have in the car before the doors opened because we were not going to stand outside in the cold. The good thing is the whole complex is covered and no snow was falling, but it was still cold outside.
The show was okay not super impressed with it. I thought the singing voices weren’t that strong and it felt more like a college show than a professional one. I enjoyed parts of it, but probably won’t see it again. After the theatre he took me out to dinner and a handful of my friends were there waiting for us. We had a great dinner and then went to another pace for dessert and drinks. Then he got us a room for the next at the Brown Palace Hotel which is one of the most beautiful and oldest hotels downtown. I want to do afternoon tea there on Mother’s Day one year.
All in all a great day and night surrounded by people I love and care about. My birthday week is starting off very nicely.
