My Weekend in Pictures

OhMyGodSoMuchFun! I went to the beach with two of my best friends, Carrie and Lori and Carrie's baby Ani. Carrie just bought a beach house and so this was the inaugural girlfriend trip. Aren't they cute?
Carrie spotted an arcade and so I was all, what if they have fun games and they were all, lets find out and we were all, aren't we way too old for this? Answer: No.
We knocked down clowns, whacked the wacky gators and learned that the three of us together can, indeed, Skeeball like Motherfuckers.
There was domino playing and wine drinking of plenty. Also, see roll of toilet paper and guess which lucky a-hole came down with a bad cold.
There were too many highlights of the weekend to even begin describing. It felt so amazing to connect with these girls who can say more to me with a glance than an hour of talking could ever explain. They know who I am, they know my heart, They know where I come from. It was getting late and we had the radio on in the background while we were playing a game. Carrie was nursing Ani and I had Roob on my knee while Lori poured another round of wine.The old song The Rose came on and without a word, one of us turned up the volume and all of us started to sing in harmony, just as we have been doing for the last 25 years or so and just kept playing our game as we sang. It felt so warm, so familiar. Then we kept the volume up so we could proceed to do The Dinosaur and debate Stevie Nicks lyrics. Rockin.
Here's to another 25 years together. The best is yet to come.

If you figure out the Stevie Nick's lyrics will you let me know? Where exactly is the edge of seventeen anyway?
