the wine stage of life...

last night i had dinner with my used to be roommate but now is just great friend rachel! i can't believe we have known each other for 2.5 years now! CRAZY! i still remember the day i met her. it was ugly! she thought i was a hick. i thought she was RIDICULOUSLY gorgeous. i still think that. she does NOT still think i'm a hick...but she thinks i'm southern at heart and that i belong there. she said last night she thinks i would THRIVE there. gan would HATE me if i moved to the south...i would have an accent FOR SURE THEN...she hates accents. i will stay (for now) for Gan! dinner was yummy. i made spaghetti pie (one of my mom's recipe's - she said it was the one she used for YEARS when taking dinner to a friend who just had a baby. my initial reaction to that comment was, man i'm glad i'm not in that stage of life yet - i don't have friends having babies. then i realized that is NOT AT ALL true. i have TWO close friends that are prego RIGHT NOW and MANY MANY of my friends already have children. I AM NOT THIS OLD. I AM NOT I AM NOT I AM NOT! i'm just old enough to enjoy a glass of wine with a friend without worrying about the parasite growing within me. yes. i'm in the WINE STAGE of life.)we also had mexican caesar salad and garlic bread (although the garlic bread was YUCK so i threw most of it away! no bueno).we had some white zin and some ice cream and watched some WIPEOUT. it was a good night. refreshing conversation with a dear friend does a heart good. LOVEYOURACH!

ps i DID manage to get the nails painted yesterday so i'm not freaking out quite as much today! whew. that was a close call.
