Last night my friend was 3 pomegranate martinis and my newest BFF, A.
It probably sounds like I drink a lot, but I don't, I promise! I just happen to blast it on social media when I do.
Tonight's glass of wine, ok 2 glasses, and the 3 martinis last night remind me though of how important it is to have friends. Not just people you wave to as you come and go to work and the store (not talking about you here, CDCP Momma Mafia! I love you guys!) but the legit ride or die bitches. Just kidding.
My boss brought in a case of wine for us to distribute as part of our Christmas gifts. I was going to choose one of the white options, but my co-workers, my best friends, told me to try this sweet red. I did and I love it! I never drink red wine! Although the rumor going around is that drinking one glass of red wine is the equivalent of one hour of exercise for your heart. I'd like to see the real stats on that study or at least participate to score some free booze!
Some of our friends bring out the best in us, others well.... They bring out the FUN in us! ("S Club WHAT*- that's a little shout out to you, my dearest A, A, M and K!).
And of course theres our "mom" friends. The ones who nod in sympathy as poop falls out of your 3 year olds underwear on to the floor in her newly renovated, beautiful home. (Wait, has that only happened to me?!)...moving on.
As someone said to me this weekend, girlfriends fill a void in the heart. It doesn't matter if you see each other for only a few hours once a month or for 40 hours a week, it is a much needed sisterhood. Share your deepest secrets and laugh together at the mistakes you've made. And by all means, use terms of endearment like "hoe and slut", that's how you know shit's real.
So drink up that booze your BF thought you'd like because at some point, a true girlfriend will know you better than you know yourself. Cheers!
