Great night--for lots of reason!

I love Annapolis at Christmas. The lights. The cold wind blowing off the water. The people bundled up and walking about the town. It’s wonderful. Sue (my sailing friend) and I walked over the town last night, looking at the light, stopping at the occasional bar for a hot-buttered rum and (basically) bumming around and having a great time.

Then to top it off—we stopped at a bar just before crossing the bridge and I got CARDED.

Sweet!!

Granted, I don’t think she thought I was under 21 but mostly, it you look 30ish—you get carded. Considering I’ll be 44 in less than a week, it was a great night. Woohoo!!

    It's almost your birthday, so I'll be nice : )

    Glad you and Sue had fun. I REALLY need to get out there.

    One of the moms from the kids' soccer team thought I "was about her age" which is 32 or 34. I was going, "Wow! Not only does she thinks I'm still in my 30's, she thinks I'm in my EARLY 30's!!" I actually think if you LOOK at me and not the kids, I look my age. But when you're OLD when you have kids, other people don't really LOOK and just make assumptions. Or maybe I do look that young LOL! As long as no one thinks I'm their grandmother!!
