Cinco de Mayo

Saturday night I went to the home of Doodlebug and Movie Buff to watch the De la Hoya vs. Mayweather fight. I did not actually watch the fight, but I did partake of the adult beverages. I like to think that I can fit in anywhere. Usually, when a conversation is taking place, I can interject intellectual or even witty dialogue. Saturday night was the first time I was unable to do this. You see, Saturday night I was a Singleton in Married Town. For the majority of the evening the only people that were at the Casa de Doodle were married couples and me. Don't get me wrong, they were all very nice, they never made me feel insignificant because I was not the half of a whole, but married people tend to talk about things that single people do not. For instance, there was a pregnant woman there and of course child birth was one of the topics of discussion. I have NOTHING to add to this conversation. And let me tell you, I heard some things about the birthing process that did not sound pleasant. If there was any doubt that I didn't want kids, believe me that doubt is GONE! If the stories these women were telling about the whole "miracle of child birth" were true, I don't see how people have more than one child. So, like I said, not much for me to interject. So, I did what any self-respecting single girl in a sea of married people would do...I suggested we do shots!!! Luckily, Doodlebug had the ingredients to make buttery nipples. I'm not sure how many we did, but we killed two bottles of buttershots. Now, I might not have a husband but to quote Bridget Jones, "At least in my thirties I am able to hold my drink!" So, while we were in the middle of "The shots heard 'round the East Side" my friend Escort showed up and he watched the end of the fight then we left and went to a party where no one was married. It was quite a bit different. By the time I got there, someone had already fallen out of a chair and broken a lamp! GOOD TIMES!!! So, as you can see, Cinco de Mayo proved to be a very eye opening experience. I love Doodlebug and Movie Buff and even though I was their token single friend, I still have fun with them.

Until next time...
