[...] Last year it got pretty of control (in an awesome way) and this year was no different, including wine shots, dancing to 1990s music and screaming along to it. It was epically fun. My modesty will not allow me to post some of the things we talked about (or witty comments I made) but for me, the best part of the night was talking on hostess’ porch with the gals, laughing, screaming, drinking wine and eating custom cupcakes, check these out: [...]

This sounds perfect, absolutely perfect! Wine shots (?!) + cupcakes + music + fab ladies = amazingness.

I need to move to Chicago. Seriously. ASAP. Ha.

I did a wine power hour this summer – so shots of wine, one every minute for an hour – and I ended up drinking way too much too quickly. Made for a fabulous drunken night though!

I think no matter how life is going … whether you’re up or down, single or married … time with girlfriends helps you recharge. Glad you had a great time this weekend and put scooted some previously crappy times under the rug.

I had grown up girl bonding time this weekend too–in a form of a sleepover!! It was great, we acted like we were kids and stayed up late watching movies and playing games in our pjs.

Sounds like a great time! And really, it’s pretty difficult NOT to have a great time with 11 bottles of wine involved! :)

My weekend involved watching “I Love You, Man,” buying a new kitchen scale and a new 6-quart cooking pot, shopping for my upcoming work conference, cooking/baking quite a bit of food and buying a new bathing suit for Disney World next month. Oh, and jamming out to my iPod! Hope the neighbors weren’t watching through my windows. :)

A few years ago I performed an amazing rendition of Freedom in my friend’s living room… at least that’s what I thought before I saw the video. That stuff always sounds better in your head.

Sounds like a much more interesting weekend than mine! I spent all of Saturday in bed and then went to a Pussycat Dolls tribute act gig last night, where i drank way too much vodka and felt lousy this morning. Boo. :(

Girl time always makes things better. There’s nothing else I want when I’m feeling down especially because of a boy drama than sitting with a few lovely girls, just drinking and chatting and laughing.:) dancing is really a bonus.

Glad you feel better.

I do not know what girlfriend-less women do. Who do they talk to or drink with?

Girlfriends are always the best people to have around, especially after a bad week. Last night sounds like it was absolutely AMAZING. Count me in on the next wine night!
