hey party people....

10 yrs ago, i would have been stepping off the plane into mexico w/ 10 of my bff's- all w/ glowing tans from a month of preplanned tanning bed visits...i can't help but wonder how we constantly pulled this off w/ our parents?? twenty yr old girls downing frozen drinks like we had no tomorrow, yelling at men in sombreros to bring their whistles over and pour mysterious blue tequila shots into our mouths, dancing the night away in sweaty clubs w/ foam parties...

i glance over at little innocent tay shoveling her raisin bran into her mouth...i smile knowing the only dancing she will be doing this week is to the 'rompa stomp stomp' by the wiggles and the only chugging will be in form of whole milk...and thank God that i have 15+ yrs to prepare...
