Licking and Hanging On

     If I had 100 years to try and explain my wonderful relationships with all my girls, I could not find the correct words.
     However, it has never stopped me from trying.
     Girlfriends are the glue, that holds us all together.
     Just yesterday I had the opportunity to lunch with the best. Friends from years working in the school system of Fulton County. We gather several times a year, for a long lunch gab fest.
    We laugh very hard, take bad photos, eat well, and may have a drink or five. ( no five is for dinner) (not always) ( maybe always) ( we are all on wine, now) ( maturity)
     One of our buddies, I will call her, Allison ( some names may not be real to protect us) (or not)
is going to The Golden Globes this weekend, red carpet ready. So we all had to put in our requests.( this may be where the title came from!!) ( thank you Vicki and Karen for reminding me to jot this down in my brain) ( always looking out for each other)
   We may have begun to talk loudly, " If you see George Clooney, lick him and grab hold of his ankle!" OK only two of us said that. With a, " And don't let go!" and we continued, search for all of the Robert Redfords of the world, that we would just like to say "Hello" to. That Ryan from La La Land and The Notebook, we love him, and will John Snow be there? Ohhhhhh Jamie Fraser, or the guy that plays Prince Phillip from The Crown!!!
     Allison this is our chance, stalk hard!! send us photos, text us throughout the festivity, and dress cute. You represent us, all. We live through your special time, its another of our girlfriend code, SHARE The Wealth of knowledge about our crushes. A, then excitedly said, " I can not wait to see Nicole Kidman!" " What, find me Keith Urban!" could have been someone with a name that starts with B?! ( we just want to see the dresses of the girls) ( well, that is not totally true) ( we love them to)
  We have no shame.
       We also, probably, for sure, tried to talk the only single person at the table into having a mini romp. We were all in agreement that 28 is not too young, he is not off limits, he plays a guitar!!
AND if he stays on his cell phone, just close your eyes!! The rest of what was said, is vault worthy. Just know that the little guy, our server, may never be the same. When one of my partners, in friendship, hollered the word MOUNT him, we never saw our server again. ( not true) ( he adored us, even  if he was a little scared) ( we are adorable people)
    Grown, highly educated, funny, beautiful, wonderful female resistors, unleashed and in love with life and each other. I love all of my girlfriends, and I miss the ones I can not lunch with. I just saw so many this summer, love them so much.
    2018 is witch titty cold, and began with friends.
    Blessed beyond the Universe.
    Missed you Perlotta!!( MP) ( we sent her photos)( she was snowed in at Charleston) ( what is happening in the world) ( all this damn cold weather) ( We love you)
Jane, Susan, Harriett, Nancy, B.A. all my girls, I love you to the moon and back.
