Okay, so the almost all sister get-away weekend got cancelled at the last minute.
Hey, what a great idea! Just all the girls getting away to spend some quality time together. A get-away that we have never done in all of the years since we got married. That's some twenty or almost thirty years, isn't it, girls?
You can picture it, eh? Make a big ol pot of coffee, grab the scrabble board, or some cards, eating homemade chicken soup, or chocolate cake, laughing till our sides hurt, and more when Pat pees her pants... sleeping in late, taking pictures of each other, going for a freezing walk on the beach together...
drinking wine, eating pretzels and cream cheese, catching the David Bowie concert, a movie, or doing a bit of gambling, sitting in our Pj's and slippers around lighted candles, talking into the wee hours of the morning..
..ya know, make new memories.... those kind of things...
in other words....living large.....middle age style...no kids, no husbands, no work, no worries - just for a weekend.
a weekend.
that's just two days.
'Cause, after all, we earned it. Dagnabbit, we even deserve it.
'Cause, it would do us good to be sisters again...not wives, or aunts, or mothers...just sisters, right?
BUT...David Bowie got the flu and had to cancel the concert last minute.
BUT ....the eastern seaboard got two or three inches of snow...well, almost. And a forecast for more on the way..(apparently two inches too much for even Suz's fricking Hum-vee) ....and i don't want to mention that we would be driving away from the snow, toward the ocean-warmed jersey shore - where they hardly ever get snow ...and was only forcasted for rain....BUT, BUT, BUT....BUT...
Anyway, they are the official reasons the weekend was called off.
BUT, (i have my own but here....), for some reason, all i can think of is that line from the movie Dumb and Dumber...
PUSS-AAY! PUSS-AY!!!!
