Cath

Tonight was crazy, in a good kind of way.
Slept in until 1pm, got up and ready for work.
It's been storming for the past 24 hours, and due to the storm there was a shortage in customers tonight at work. Got cut early, went to Sarah's house so we could figure out what we wanted to do. While looking in the mirror, I was having a bad hair day (thankyourain), I decided I wanted a haircut. Nothing drastic, just something to make me feel a little better.

Drove down to Town and Country, only to find them closed at 7pm, on a Saturday?
Decided to go to JC Penney, where I'd get my bangs cut at a salon there, took a short cut on the way but wasn't quite sure where it was going to. Briefly lost, we found our way, hahaha the short cut worked.

Walked in to the salon, a spanish new york woman cut my bangs. 5 minutes and 5 bucks later, awesome, right??!!?, we were on our way out of JC Penney and into the main mall entrance. Only to be stopped by police who were carding people. Thank you parental guidance required rule that they just recently instated. 2 cops carded Sarah and I, "Do you have I.d.?", knew that due to being a minor we'd be turned away, decided to go for it anyway. Nonchalantly handed the cop my i.d. he looked at it and then gave me a purple band that represented that I was "over 18".  The other cop couldn't read Sarah's age and asked her to remove it out of the case, she had some trouble and just said "I was born in 91." Shooooooot. They turned her away but told me I was good to go. Unfortunately, you must be 21 or over to escort a minor around with you. Turned away disappointed, only to find the woman who had cut my hair not long ago walking into the mall. "What's wrong girls?" We explained. She told the security guards that we were with her, and next thing we knew, we were walking around the mall with her.

Came up with the brilliant idea that if Sarah and I traded jackets we'd be okay. I had a band saying I was "18", which ps. for those of you who don't know: I'm not., she didn't. She was wearing a quarter sleeve sweater over her shirt, I was wearing a long sleeve hoodie. We traded so my wrist, with the bracelet on it, was visible, and her wrist, with no bracelet on it, wasn't. Pretty brilliant, I know.

Shopped around for a little bit and we each got a cute peace sign charm necklace from american eagle. We decided they're our little friendship necklaces. You can faintly see them in the pictures below.

Tried on a pair of jeans at american eagle to get free movie tickets. "Denim and a movie", it's called. Went to the movies 10, only to find out that, go figure, the tickets are good for a movie theatre that's up in Pennsylvania somewhere. No thanks. Called Jake and crashed at his house for a bit with him and his cousin, Josh. Sarah and I were hungry so we went out for a not-so-yummy late dinner at Charcoal Pit. Afterwards, we went back to Jake's house for a bit. Around 11 we decided it was probably time to go home, even though I had no curfew. Stopped at Sarah's house to go get some clothes, and then headed home for the night.

wait, you cant go into the mall without an adult??
thats not right.
they're making so many laws lately that just deny people of their freedom. in baltimore there are all sorts of new noise laws, and you arent allowed to swear in public. its just unconstitutional...hello free speech?

loveyou.
