My bestie wanted to go out tonight. So did I. It’s been a shit week at work, and we still have one more day to go! So, the only logical thing to do was to hit the club!
Now don’t get me wrong, I 💯% love hanging with my bestie. I wouldn’t trade those moments for anything. One week from today is her 30th birthday. My 30th was 16 years ago. That age gap is painfully obvious when we go out.
Even in my twenties, I was never a big drinker. I can absolutely hold my own, but the thought of drinking myself into oblivion was never really on my radar. Drink to have a good time, yes. Drink to blackout and forget it all, absolutely not. I’m not saying that’s what she does, but she definitely goes a little harder than my old ass. For reasons unbeknownst to me, I try to keep up. I think I put forth a respectable effort.
Tonight she had me throwing darts. I’m happy to report that no one was impaled at my hand. I managed to hit the board with every dart, even if some of them fell and mocked me on their way to the ground. 
My bestie likes to do shots of Patron. I’m not one to let anyone drink alone, so now apparently I like to do shots of Patron too. In addition to being too old to act this young, I’m too poor to act this rich! But here I am, shot glass in hand, cheers-ing with my bestie. Tiny Bestie💕 likes to cheers with her cookie or pizza…my old ass should probably stick to that. Three drinks, four shots, and a couple hits from the penjamin later and it starts to become painfully obvious that I’m not as young as I once was.
I love my bestie. She’s amazing, spectacular, fanfuckingtastic! I just have to remember that I’m old enough to be her mother and stop trying to act like me her sister. On second thought, screw that! If hanging out with her makes me feel young, what’s the harm in that? I just need a nap 😂
It’s a good thing tomorrow is Friday. I’m gonna need a weekend to recover. And maybe a shot or two. Seems this is a vicious cycle hahahahahahahaha
Oh no! Here I am, going on and on about my bestie, and nearly forgetting the most important statement I could ever make….
……drumroll please 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
My daughter is the most amazing, spectacular, creative, compassionate, hilarious, loveable person on the planet!!
Ok, Nitol! Geritol to you older folks!!
P.S.
I’ll feel amazing after a few hours of sleep!
