Last night, my friends and I went out to dinner at Mi Tolteca. Thank heavens we are regulars, because otherwise they would have thought we all needed to be locked up. Jury might still be out on me ;)
We had just finished auditions for an upcoming production for DGM and wanted to have a nice dinner and relax. Over dinner, we started remembering how we all met. We talked about all the quirks we all have and how we are such a unique bunch. Of course, for anyone who doesn’t know, I love to laugh, even if it is at my own expense. We then busted one another since we knew it was us and we’re all family after everything we’ve been through. Naturally, they did impressions of me because I am a nut case and admit it quite openly. They quoted me for my infamous sayings such as, “I am a woman of my word,” “I am the most morbid individual you will ever meet,” and the night would not be complete without a dig at my “I am damaged” line, which explains me to a T.
I don’t think we all laughed so hard in our lives. We were in tears, we were laughing so hard. It was really a great night. I mean it when I say that I am the luckiest girl in the world. My friends put up with a lot and no matter what, have never dropped me -- not even once. How rare that is to find let alone maintain. Wow. That is a statement.
My point is, life is short and time is ticking. Surround yourself with wonderful people who love you for who you are -- quirks and all. Make 2009 a great year. I wish you all the best for this year. Make time for the moments and memories that are unforgettable.
I think Five For Fighting said it best: You only got 100 years to live.
What will you have to show for those years?
2009 Resolution: Make every moment count. Live. Laugh. Love.

I am blessed to have some of the best friends in the world. You know that life is truly wonderful when you can all make fun of each other over dinner and not have to reach for a bottle of Tylenol because of hurt feelings. What a great way to ring in the New Year.Last night, my friends and I went out to dinner at Mi Tolteca.
