I need some of those. I was in the yarn store last December during one of those late-hours xmas festive weekends with my Dad and I saw you and hadn't known you worked there and whispered to him how weird it was that I know your bra size and all kinds of other things and yet was way too shy to actually say hi to you because I know how weird it is to have people come up and know things about you from a blog and know nothing about them and ... you know. So, you had a groupie in the store a couple months ago. Just sayin'. Those are the coolest cocksure shoes I’ve ever seen.

I was. So when people invite me to go out for a drink what the really mean is: I am having a mid life crisis, I need you to get me drunk, help me make questionable decisions so I can remember what it was like before I had a mortgage. Seriously. My friends would weep if I showed up in those shoes with out a cast on one of the feet. Its a lot of pressure! Ok, were you the “party animal” in high school?

It almost always is. I throw dinner parties and invite everyone and their housecat, usually while I am totally loaded, and then the Dread kicks in, and I clean and fuss and stress, and it's as though I'm expecting them all to be screaming into their cell phones about their season opera tickets while rolling their eyes at the foie gras...and then they show up and I'm SO RELIEVED, because I love these people. It's like, oh yeah, these are my FRIENDS. Was it much more fabulous than you were dreading? It almost always is.

I know what you mean though. I actually did a shot of vodka before getting in the car (I know, safe, right!) to come and see ya'll. I called all my girlfriends, including my daughters wanting one of them to say it was crazy and I should stay home where I belong! It really was so great to see you! I'm so weirded out by the fact that we are our mothers' ages! And even more weirded out by Linda's hotel rooms, and your ...was it Jim Beam nights??! hahahahha You still make me laugh!

But about a day before, I feel the unyielding pull towards my Fat Pants and make up and unfortunate excuse. Let me say that I, too, embrace any and all invitations with undue gusto!

I've all but given up on blogging since I got serious about Facebook a couple months ago. I have reunited with so many of my long lost friends-- 300 of them!-- and have enjoyed 5 real time reunions so far. I <3 Facebook! :D Yay Facebook!

Sadly, no guacamole involved, and no face to face meetings either. He's in Texas. They have each recently deserted normal, salaried, benefits-offering jobs for lives on the stage. And they have each fathered a toddler in their dotage. My most unlikely Facebook re-connection - my best friend from church camp. Which would be almost 35 years ago. She is weirdly unchanged from preadolesence. I would need my smartypants to drink with her. http://www.cafepress.com/loosetooth.38502938 My husband got a call from his high school best friend (almost exactly 30 years ago) this afternoon!

Sadly my sister forgot about my long list of tumbles when she picked out her bridesmaids shoes which look a lot more like ankle breakers with floss on them. sigh. actually that is exactly what my cocksure shoes look like only in brown.

The comfortable shoe store lady told me that my feet are even more Flintstone-y than I thought. I hope you had fun and didn’t fall down!
