Girl's Night Out!

Last month, one of my neighbors, Darla, suggested that we all get together for a movie. So after several planning emails, 11 of us met at the Studio Movie Grill for dinner and a movie. We had no idea that a thousand other women had the same idea - "meet 10 or so of your friends for a movie on Wednesday night" - but after waiting in a long slow line, we finally made it into the theatre and managed to order food and drinks just before the movie started.

What better movie could a group of 11 women see than The Women. It was a good movie, and the first movie I have ever seen without ONLY women in the movie. Although many of the women in the movie had husbands, dads, and boyfriends, you never saw them. There was not a single man in the entire movie.

Well, we had so much fun the first time, that we decided to make Girls Night Out at the Movies a monthly event. We met tonight to see Nights in Rodanthe with Richard Gere & Diane Lane. While it received terrible reviews from the movie critics, we found it to be a good movie. It was a little slow at times, but overall, it was a good love story and one that you will not want to miss. If I say more, I'm afraid I'll give something away, so I will close.

I'm not sure what's on the screen next month, but I am sure that Darla will find us another great movie to see! Darla, thanks again for coordinating and for getting all of us together for Girl's Night Out!
