Love Letters

I know, I'm bad. It's been a month and a half since my last confession...

Just kidding.

But seriously, my life has just been so full-to-bursting-at-the-seams lately that I haven't had time to write. Although, in all fairness, I do sit in front of a computer for 40 hours a week. (My my, am I always this wishy-washy?) Anyway... between getting called into the Pub every other day, the liquor promotions and working a full-time job, any attempt at juggling a social life has been quite an adventure of late. My down time has mostly been composed of sleeping, ironing, doing laundry, or cleaning the litterbox. Oh, and picking up my NEW CAR, which I'm absolutely in love with. I'm actually in love with it in a physical, emotional I'd-make-out-with-it-if-it-had-lips kind of way. It had better not cheat on me, like someone else I know.

I'm fully aware that I'm all over the place today, but bear with me. I read this really stupid interview on TV Guide online with Kerri Russell (aka: Felicity) last week, and the requisite, "are you dating anyone?" question was asked. (Can't they think of ANYTHING more interesting to ask her??) She responded by saying something to the effect of, "I'm just really in love with my girlfriends right now", which at the time, I felt was a perfectly stupid cop-out response. However, it got me thinking.

I AM in love with my girlfriends right now. There are no other people on the planet that I am so desperately infatuated with right now. My 4 or 5 closest girlfriends are utterly fascinating to me, and I hold them all in the highest regard. I absolutely can NOT believe the garbage that they've put up with from me in the last few months. I've been whiney, petulant, self-absorbed, miserable, depressing, needy and all-around horrendous. Never mind that every single one of them has had just as much, if not a boat-load more stuff to deal with. Ladies, this is a message - a love letter, if you will - to you all. I love you all sososo much. You are my rocks, and without you, I would have (for no real good reason) drowned.
