old dog, new tricks...

i wanted to share my weekend with the girls in p-town.  i actually started tapping out a rundown of the highlights and then realized that the juicy gossip, the running jokes and time we spent together is better left with just us.  i know not a very exciting story to share, but i cherish those friendships so much that maybe, just maybe i have been over sharing?

as i have said many times, i do this just for me.  there are times i talk about other people in my life and i do my best to keep their identity private, but i honestly forget sometimes that other people read this.  when something i have shared comes back to bite me in the rear, i get taken aback just a bit.  i imagine the human reading about themselves from my point of view is taken aback as well.  i logically know that everyones comfort level of sharing is very different, but i haven't always been very sensitive to how much i should share about someones life even if it is through my eyes.  time to grow up a bit and be more sensitive.  who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?

so, here is what i can share, i had the best weekend.  the sun was HOT, which prompted some interesting conversations, which caused side aches from rolling laughter, which brought tears to our eyes.  there is something very comforting and relaxing being in the presence of two amazing women that i have known my whole life.  i can be exactly who i am and not worry about whether my ass-plosion, from the ridiculous amounts of rich food we consumed, is going to offend them.  i can drop the name of a fella and they know who i am talking about without a whole ton of back story.  in addition we continue to share our triumphs and struggles, solidifying our friendship even more.

oh, i can share one more thing, we found ourselves with an odd choice in theme songs for the weekend, brought to you by lil john.  this tune is pretty catchy but not appropriate for virgin ears.  i don't even know how she found this gem?  i prefer folkier music, i know it's totally nerdy and my driver for the weekend listens to primarily country but has a surprising variety of music on her running playlist.  so if you are a human who enjoys "fist pumping" this tune lends itself to copious amounts of fist pumping.  go ahead,6 click on the link and check it out, just don't judge our choice of song for the weekend.
