I feel so compelled to thank all my blogging friends for their emails and comments of support in regards to my last post. You really know how to lift a girl when she’s feeling down. My friendship and sense of community that I have formed with you has been such an unexpected surprise from blogging. I have put myself out there; heart and soul and you have embraced me warmly. Thank you.
I’m also sending out a shout out to my good friend Vicki. We met several years ago when our daughters began dancing together but we didn’t get close until this past year. Now I’m having a girl crush on her because I love spending time with her and can’t wait to see her next. She has to be one of the funniest women I have ever met. She helps me embrace my inner child with her goofiness. We are so immature together that we embarrass our girls. What’s more fun than embarrassing your children? I laugh so much with her that my face and stomach muscles ache. Do you have a friend like that? You should. It’ll keep you young.
I wrote out two examples of our immaturity and goofiness but it didn’t read as funny as it was. They were those had-to-be-there kind of moments. Basically they had to do with me holding up a bottle of massage lotion that relieves PMS while shopping at a bath and body store. I called out to Vicki across the store that I found a massage lotion to help her PMS. The look on a girl standing in the checkout line was priceless! Later while sitting in my car Vicki caught me telling and itsy bitsy teeny weeny lie to a friend’s answering service. Her laughing caused me to start laughing so I pretended to cough and hung up the phone. I laughed so hard that I farted which sent us into the kind of laughing where you feel you can’t breathe. Then we nearly peed our pants from laughing so hard. See? You had to be there.
Vicki is an up and coming YouTube celebrity. Here is a video of her that cracks me up. I love her facial expressions. Thank you Vicki for being such a great friend.

Mmmm, I didn’t “get” the video. But I’m sure she’s delightfully funny, if you say so. You have a great sense of humour. Yay for you guys! My friend like that is Cathy. Late at night we laugh over stupid things like the word “turgid”. Supposedly, it’s a synonym for “chic”. Sure doesn’t sound like it. I think I’d be insulted if someone called me “turgid”. Sounds like “frigid” and “turd” rolled into one. And late at night I find that hilarious and Cathy laughs along with me.
Okay, now it’s your turn to read my entry for today!

I can’t (or won’t) watch the video now because I’m at work…
but, like you, I am forever grateful for the blogging friends I’ve made. Including YOU!!
That laughing until you fart made me giggle. I’ve had moments like that with a couple of my girlfriends. Laughs like that are so much fun!

Ahhhhhhh! I HEART you too! Thanks for going and looking at all my videos and making comments. You so crazy! I love you dearly and am so glad we have become such good friends. You’ve been there for me for so many great times and to scoop me off the ground when I thought I was finished. Thank you for your friendship and understanding and unconditional love. I’ve laughed so hard with you I think I’ve “piddled” in my pants on more than one occasion. Now that’s love
