Saturday Night Was A Well Planned Event

It was Saturday morning at the Main Street beauty shop in the little town of Morgan’s Cove. Lana, the owner had just put the young blond under dryer three and gave her coffee and a magazine. She came in almost every weekend to have her hair washed and set in big rollers.

Tonight she had plans to go to the clubs in nearby Margaritaville. It was a cool place where people of all ages went for a drink. Weekends were most crowded, this being a small town. Tonight was special though. One of the contestants from American Idol was going to do a show. True, he only made the first two cuts, but it was still exciting to think of seeing him in person.

Lori started daydreaming as she decided what to wear to the concert. Black denim jeans were one of her favorites. They were casual, yet dressy. She was wearing an emerald green sequined top with them. The dryer hummed on as she decided carefully which one of her best jewelry sets would look appropriate with her clothes for the night.

As she and Ruba, her best friend, got ready they were especially careful with their hair. They wanted it to look perfect. Both planned to look flashy enough to stand out among the other women. Lori put on pale green earrings to match her green top. Ruba had on crystal earrings and matching bracelet. She was dressed in a pale yellow outfit.

She began to complain that her hair didn’t look as good as she expected. Lori asked if she had ever tried the nioxin intensive therapy recharging complex. She had not tried it. Well, Lori explained, it was not an external product. It was a tablet you swallowed and it promoted new hair growth and healthy looking hair. She had been taking it for a month now and it seemed to work very well. Ruba told her, yes, her hair did look shiny and healthy.

They had washed the car, worn their favorite clothes and gotten all ready to make the drive to Margaritaville. They went over the list. There was gas in the car, tires inflated to the right degree, phone number to call a cab if they drank too much and emergency phone numbers. The girls reminded each other to never leave an opened drink unattended even for a second. No perverts were going to find them easy targets.

They both opened their hobo handbags and checked for their lipstick, hairbrushes and credit cards. Yes, they both had their identification cards in their wallets. Being so excited about the evening ahead, they didn’t want to forget anything. Agreeing not to break any speed limits, they went out to the car for their trip to the club to see the singer who was, to their way of thinking, a minor celebrity.
