Yesterday Wendy, Joy, and I made up with a friend at one of the malls. We have not been to this mall in quite awhile. Now I think I know why. It felt packed. The parking lot was full and it took us awhile to find a place. It was one of those parking garages. At one point we had to wait about two minutes for a person waiting to get a spot. We made it into the mall and there were more people. I doubt it would work, but they need devoted mall lanes of traffic, like the HOV lanes.
We spent most of the afternoon walking around. Better than spending money I guess. Not that we could afford too much. We did take advantage, along with several other people, the half price frappuccino deal at Starbucks.
The part that was a little irritating about the mall, besides the crowd, was the search for the restroom. I had to walk the mall just to find a restroom. I must have been at the wrong place at the wrong time. One time when I had to change Joy's diaper I had to walk down four hallways to get to the restroom. I told Wendy I should write that thank you for having such long hallways, now I can pee and just float down the hallway. The family restroom was locked and you had to be buzzed in. I thought that was not worth it. One good thing was that the changing table in the men's restroom was out of the way and I did not have to stand in a urinal.
Who knew that people liked to shop on a Saturday? The malls apparently.
Then Wendy, Joy, and I went to a discount place and bought some clothes for around 3 dollars a piece. Now that is retail therapy.
