Happy Hour

Tuesday night I got together with some ladies for some drinks. Both the ladies and the beers will remain anonymous, so you won't judge me for drinking Miller Lite with olives or hanging out with beautiful people like Maggie.
Most of the conversation centered around marriage and weddings and the pets which allegedly prepare us for the eventuality of babies. Good God. I took a minute to calm my central nervous system before even typing that.
With these women, I fill my assigned role in the group dynamic. I am the theater one, the one who overreacts to the natural progression of life (see above), and suburban living; the one who gets her hair all chopped off just to have a very tiny ponytail and then forgets to tell anybody about it. Hello, you are my cute mini ponytail and I love you.

When I told them about my plan for an entire sleeve's worth of Virgin Mary tattoo, they abandoned years of saying "yes, I'd still be your friend if you [wore an eyepatch/spoke in tounges/had three nipples/_____]" and said no. But I know what that really means is that they TOTALLY approve.

*This is the only self portrait I took with my mouth closed. Like plucking eyebrows without tearing up. It's nearly impossible.

I think you should get the sleeve tatoo as well. But the actual tatoo, not the sleeve. :) Great seeing you Kess!
