This week was an "Oh shit" kind of week. Have you ever had one of those? It was crazy at my work because it was our biggest sale of the year and I was running around like a rooster with an amputated cock-a-doodle-doo. Ohh, ouch! Maybe that is not a very good analogy, I was just trying to be original by not using the phrase "running around like a chicken with my head chopped off." I think my analogy enhances the intensity of the situation. Anyway, Sunday rolls around and while I'm in the break room at work I have an unpleasant epiphany. I say out loud, "Oh shit! I haven't worn a dress all week and the week's practically over!" Luckily, I have some great friends. My buddy Nic responds with, "Want to go slack-lining at my house and drink some PBRs?" Umm, yes please! My problem was solved, and not only that, but it involved beer. Also, 'slack-lining in a dress' was totally on my list of things to do!
The great thing about being a girl and having guy friends is they really get you in the right mind set of having just good, simple fun. Guys friends are terrific. Don't get me wrong, I love my lady friends, but it is so important to get a proper dosage of both estrogen and testosterone. Some of the few things that are awesome to do with my girl friends include(but are by no means limited to): drinking wine, having heart-to-hearts, dancing, watching cheesy reality TV and talking about boys...which are all very necessary and fulfilling activities. But with guys, it's about making fun the old fashion way, that basically means drinking beer and doing really silly, uncomplicated things. For example, it means slack-lining. It means slack-lining while you hold your beer. It means finishing your entire beer while slack-lining( or at least attempting to complete that task). It means slack-lining while somebody shakes the slack-line really hard trying to get you to loose your balance and fall off. That is good ole' fun and it makes my stomach hurt from laughing so hard. I love my guy friends. Thanks dudes!
