Thursday, Shmursday

Looky here! Another Idaho blogger, and better yet, one who seems to share many of my political and religious opinions! I could just piddle from the excitement. Thanks for posting a comment, Corey. Hope to get to know you better.

Today is the big girlfriend get-together day. Why am I feeling so ambivalent about this? Since moving to Cascade four years ago, my nearby girlfriend quotient has dropped dramatically. I don't have seven kids and my husband doesn't beat me, so I have very little in common with many of the women in this area. (Okay, that was hyperbole, but I am a charming and fascinating person who just isn't finding a whole lot of companionship outside of my home.) So I should be excited about seeing the girls, right? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that my right eye is swollen halfway shut after an allergy attack yesterday afternoon. Matt suggested I wear an eye-patch and talk in pirate speak all day. Helpful, isn't he?

I dunno...I guess I feel like several of the girls and I have grown apart in the last few years. We're lacking some commonality anymore.

It's supposed to be 104 degrees in Boise today. I'll likely wilt like a flower, don't you think?
