I had THE BEST time this past Saturday night. I went to a dear friend's birthday party...chicks only. She was celebrating an over 40 under 50 party and there were 8 women there. It was wierd because most of us new OF each other, a couple of us had met before but generally we were all strangers with one friend in common. We were from all walks of life...professional actress, opera singer, writer, nurse, 30 year old ( yes that's a category when you're in a room with all mid 40 year olds!), dental assistant, stay at home mom.
What was unique about this evening was that everyone seemed to have equal voice/equal status. You know what I mean? For some reason ( ok maybe the red wine helped) there didn't seem to be anyone prettier, skinnier, funnier, smarter, richer, nicer, better, etc etc. Now, of course there WAS someone skinnier, funnier, smarter etc etc but it didn't feel like it.
Everyone shone. We laughed so hard. We danced so hard. We ate so much. We drank a little too much. We were ON! Did we solve global warming, world hunger and the war on poverty? NO.... we sure could have - but we were just having too much fun being comfortable, care free, smart, funny, pretty, skinny, powerful women.
Happy Birthday Rhonda!!!!
