Nothing Like It...

I swear there is nothing like a solid patio night with a close girlfriend, or girlfriends. I just had a good 4 hour-long catch up, wine-drinking, chat session with a friend of mine, and I feel fabulous. Maybe it's the house white talking, but spending a few hours outside, in the sun, with a great girl is something that just can't be compared to. There's no eye-rolling, annoyed feeling that seems to be inevitable when you're out with a guy. There's no first-date pressure or awkwardness. And you can gossip about all the passing guys and girls to your heart's content. Don't forget about your girlfriends - no matter what your marital status/dating situation/mood...it's so important to have some quality girl time in your life. The older I get the more that means a few hours on a patio, and less hours in a club.
