Hey! It’s Plush Animal Lovers Day! Maybe it’s time to celebrate your stuffed friends like I did back in August. Or maybe just an extra kiss on the top of their soft head will work. 😉 How’s your week going? This past week has been pretty good. On Friday, after a fun photoshoot, I headed off to photograph some roadside attractions, which I will be posting more about soon. In my travels, I found some cool stuff that wasn’t on my list, like this wheel sculpture.

Thursday night, a gaggle of gals got together to celebrate MaryAnna’s birthday. We started at Clementine in Baltimore, where Susan works. She provided a giant meal for us for free. It was incredible. I couldn’t even eat half the stuff that was brought to us. That place is delicious, though, and I even had heart for the first time! (eeep.)

Afterwards, we headed to April’s for games, drinks, and a bonfire. At one point, April just dropped a firework in the bonfire and quietly got up to back away from the scene of the crime. Erica noticed that a box had appeared with the letters “TNT” on it and we all jumped back. This is why I love April.

There’s only a few days left till Halloween! Are you ready?! I’m going to be really sad when October is over, honestly. I wish that this wig shop in Old Town Mall was still open, because obviously they could help you out with your costume. 😉

Spookily yours,
