Girlfriends

I had a conversation the other night with a girl that I don't really know that well and the first thing she said to me was 'Yea - I don't really like girls that much'. This is one of my biggest pet peeves especially at this period in my life I feel like I am leaning on my girlfriends more than ever. There was a time in my life where I used to say the same thing because I thought it was 'cooler' to be friends with the guys. It makes me sad for girls that don't have girlfriends or that think it's fun to fight with other girls. Guys are great and I have some wonderful guy friends..but you need the girls!!

Lately it seems like with Josh studying and working all the time I have had a lot of time to catch up on lost time with girl friends.

It just feels really good to be surrounded by good girlfriends. Those are the people that take you out to Smiths when you make your first sale, listen to you complain when have a bad day, be the first to throw you a birthday party, engagement party or wedding shower, watch stupid movies with you, talk about chick-lit, go bridesmaid dress shopping with you for 4 hours looking for the right color, take the time to schedule phone dates with you from D.C. or half way across the world, not give up on double dinner dates even if it takes 3 years, workout with you, shop and eat with you when you don't feel like working out, dance like an idiot with you, let you send all your wedding presents and RSVP's to their house, send you cards for every occasion, tell you when you are doing something stupid and go for a glass of wine with you after a long day.

I could go on and on but you get my point. Y'all know who you are and I love you - you make my life better everyday.

  2. I think that 3 year double dinner date might be me :) I seriously thought about going back to the yogurt place last night... I have an addiction. You need girlfriends for that.
