We'll be friends until we forget

Tonight Mona, Janelle (Mona's son's girlfriend), and I went to see Mamma Mia! This simply was one of the best movies that I've seen in a long time. There were times during the movie when I could see that Mona was feeling exactly what I was feeling...I wanted to jump into the screen and dance and sing with them! These three 50+ women in this movie showed that there's plenty of life ahead. I tried to find a picture of the beautifully horrid circa 1980's disco unitard outfits that they wore for a couple of the singing numbers, but couldn't find one. I would love to dress up in one of those outfits and belt one out like Meryl Streep, Julie Walters, and Christine Baranski did. It was the ultimate chick flick, and I know that if Dan had been there he would have felt like shooting himself in the head within 5 minutes of the movie starting. If you haven't seen it, please do, but see it with a girlfriend. There were times during the movie where the audience clapped, myself including, after the music numbers.
On the way home, Mona and I talked about how much it means to have close girlfriends to go through life with. Both of us agreeing that we wished that we had childhood girlfriends that we were still close to. But then Mona pointed out that we've known each other for almost 30 years. That's more time than I ever spent with my childhood girlfriends. So I said, "Mona we've got decades ahead of us to share. We'll be friends until we die." Her reply had me on the floor, "No Cindy, we'll be friends until we forget." I love the way you think Mona. Keep it coming dear friend.
