Graduation Cashola

I have been left thinking about something lately. I got some graduation money from some friends and family. I have been left pondering what I am going to do with it. I think people give you money so that you can treat yourself to something you don’t normally get to do, you can buy something that you would normally pass on, you would spend it on something that really means a lot to you but you don’t have the money for it. Often times I want to take my most special friend out on a date…like a real date, but more times that not, I don’t have the spare cash. So last night we went on a date. Oh my goodness sakes, it was so much fun. We started at Johnny Rockets where we sat by the window and people watched for quite awhile. We had good food and great conversation. Next we headed down to Color Me Mine where we each painted a bowl for each other. It was Ladies Night…which we didn’t even know about….and so the studio fee was only 5 dollars, instead of 10. We picked out colors and made the bowls look exactly how we thought the other would enjoy. It was a blast! We finally left at around 9:30 (even though they closed at 9)…and we headed to Baskin Robbins. We got ice cream and found a bench to sit on. We talked and people watched for quite awhile. It was amazing. Every single moment of the night was perfect. I felt so great that I got to pay for everything all nigh. So for the people that gave me graduation money….thanks for the amazing gift of a great date with an amazing person.
