Dress shopping

So yesterday I went to Sacramento to meet up with my friend Kerry. I was a little late for my appointment at the first bridal place, so Kerry called and made sure we could come half an hour later.

When we got there we realized they do not have a parking lot, so we were stuck with street parking. We did not have any quarters so i had to run into the bridal shop to get change and run back.

When we got into the bridal shop and i filled out a car and made my way upstairs where the lone three racks of dresses were that I could try on. We found about seven dresses to try on. I liked a couple of them.

So after running out to feed the meter, yet again. We went and had lunch at a place next to the bridal salon. They had some 3 course lunch special for $10. You get soup/salad, entree and ice cream or a mocha. Well they were out of that, so we had to order something else. When we finally got our food, I noticed a meter maid checking all the meters. Well ours was across the street and so obviously flashing red. So I ran across the street and moved my car. I found a spot not too far away that didn't require quarters.

That sucked since it was within walking distance, so we could have relaxed and not worried about it. Oh well. We'll know next time.

We went next to a place that has a bunch of dresses. Its an outlet but they told me over the phone that they have orderable dresses. So I wanted to try on the orderable dresses, but the lady kept giving me ones that were "limited stock" basically you see what you get.

So of course I try on one dress that I loved and it fit almost perfectly, but its limited stock. So its not something I can order. So I either buy now or can't get it.
