an ode to women:
anyone who knows me knows i don't really love women. their gossip, their drama, their dating, their crying. i've never been one to be surrounded by lots of "girlfriends." i have one or two at a time and its suites me just fine. in the last year or two of my life, it seems, tho, its turning around!! a lifetime of disgruntled thoughts towards the members of my fellow sex is fading!! hooray!
-i have one lifetime girlfriend. laura. literally in sunbeams @ church together at age 3 and i have no recollection of life without her.
-i have one girlfriend from highschool. kelli. so alike and so opposite. the reason we probably get along is bc we just can't do without each other at this point. and why would i want to?
-i lived in an apartment at college with 6 girls. jana jamie jen reily camille & me. i love them. i'm not sure what possessed me to live with that much estrogen in the first place, but it was the best.
-jamie jayne anne. they put up with me. we don't talk all the time. maybe sometimes we're not as close. but i KNOW without a doubt each of them came into my life on purpose.
-i hang out with girls. i actually call them on the weekends to hang out. meredith was essentially my "date" for Mamma Mia.
-i work with almost all women. i ACTUALLY like roxann & lenzi, etc etc etc... this is more of a feat than you may know.
-girls have picnics. meredith raime & i actually PLANNED to hang out. in advance.
-i am now the proud aunt of 4 neices in a row. kaylaigh mae rachel abigail evelyn lillieth maren sophia. so much pink. so many small bows.
-i have 1 sister and 3 sister in laws. the women of our family just became full. my sister melissa is my bestfriend, pantry, and tv show updater.
i guess i just feel the need to shout out to the women in my life. i do a lot more crying now than i think i have in my whole life. i cry when i'm happy. why my body does this, we have no idea. i wear heels and jeans. yes i do. i like big earrings and babies, have ovaries, am finally growing into only wanting one boy at a time, and definately am proud to be a woman... most days ;)
