ON THE HUNT FOR COSTUME STUFF
After eating lunch, I headed out to JC Penney to purchase another jacket. I'd already purchased one at Kohls but I wanted a brown one that is a little thicker, but pretty much the same style.
JCP had a sale where you get $10 off any purchase of $25 or more. After looking at the jackets, I thought it might make sense to just come back for another purchase so I can get another $10 off the jacket. Why buy everything at once when you can get $10 off again?
Then I headed out to Hidden Valley golf course where Jared was waiting for me. We wanted to see if I could get on the course as a spectator pretending to watch Jared play golf. We hit on the range for awhile trying to find just the right time to get on. Finally, there was no one waiting to hit on hole #1 so we went inside the starter's building only to find out that the Irish dickhead that Jared was talking about was running the cash register.
He told us that I could not spectate, but when we explained that Jared was part of Get A Grip, he told us I could get a cart for $20. But he also told us it was jam packed, so we said forget it and just left.
Jared then called his buddy up at Trilogy to see if we could play there. His friend said we could, so we headed out. But first, we stopped by Walmart to see if I could find some of my costume parts. I was looking for some ribbing that would be attached to the jacket, but an employee told us that they no longer had a fabric department because they had to make room for the grocery store. She told us to go to Main and 6th in Corona since there was a fabric store there.
We headed out there and couldn't find the store. We saw a tailor though, and asked them where it was. They pointed us in the right direction and told us that the store closed at 4pm. It was 4pm when we got to the door and thought it'd be closed. But it wasn't and we walked inside to ask them about the ribbing. They didn't have any that was the right color and they said that it was difficult to find.
Instead, they suggested I purchase some ribbing that is normally used for colors. It was light brown, but I figured I could dye it to the correct color. I bought all the pieces along with some fabric for the scorpion and it cost me about $12.
When we got to Trilogy, the guy that Jared knows said we couldn't play so we were bummed out. We were tired of hitting golf balls on the range, so we just left. We stopped by Michael's for some dye then I took Jared home to his moms. The girls were there and Karina was trying to leave to pick Shawn up. I left at the same time but Jared and Kylie decided to come with me since they were going to their grammy's the next day.
We stopped by Cici's for dinner and it was terrible. It was cheap, but the pizza had a cardboard crust and wasn't very good at all. I likened it to something like Little Ceasar's or Chuck E. Cheese without the entertainment. But it was cheap, so I guess you get what you pay for.
Jared decided to go to Knott's with Marissa while Kylie and I watched Revenge on demand.
