what's your poison?
So, according to Dylan, the girliest thing about me is that I prefer wine coolers and daquiries over beer and wine. I found that humorous (and apparently he did too cause he laughed about it for, like, 5 minutes). I make this statement to pose this question: Is that true? And if so, is it OK?
I'm not sure about how I feel about him laughing because I'd rather have a strawberry daquirie over a Corona...I'm not sure how I feel about the fact that I am SO not girlie that having something about me that's considered "feminine" is hilarious to my best friend.
I've never been a girlie kind of person. In elementary school, I would turn down trips to the mall with my friends because I had basketball practice and would use the heads of my Barbies for baseballs when I would loose one. I much prefer a good pair of jeans and a sweatshirt over a skirt and top any day, and I would rather spend my afternoons watching football with my dad and yelling at the TV or playing catch with one of my guys friends, than analyze the characters on Gilmore Girls with my girlfriends or paint my toenails while watching a chick flick. I sometimes feel less feminine or slightly lesser somehow in guys' eyes than some of the other girls I know because I'm like this, but on the whole, I like that guys seem to feel like they can come to me to talk and get advice about their girlfriends, rather than be the girlfriend that's giving them problems...on the whole...That's not to say that I didn't give my ex-boyfriend plenty of problems. He was so pissed with me breaking up with him that this Christmas break that passed was the first time he's spoken to me in 3 years. I suppose that God gave me this personality for a reason, so I'm going to learn to like it and will trust that there's a purpose to me being the way that I am.

Tara... I'm going to say that no, drinking wine coolers is not OK. Speaking from experiance, (at least my experiance) the purpose of drinking is to get totally wasted so you really don't feel the burning sensation when someone lights all of your body hair on fire. Sigh.. the good ol' days... anyway. So, stop what your doing! Put down that berry tastalicious minimal alcohol containing beverage and let me intoduce to you a good friend of mine. His name is Jim Beam.
Ah, sh(cencored for the children), I totally mis-spelled some words! But you know what? Anyone who does not like it can go snuff it.
