Dinner with the girls

 Tonight a group of women from our neighborhood got together for an evening of good food and a lot of laughs.  One of the ladies shared the following with us and we had to laugh because we're all getting closer and closer to identifying with the 85 year old friends in the story.


                           DINNER WITH THE GIRLS

               A group of 15-year-old girlfriends discussed where to meet
          for dinner. Finally, they agreed to meet at the Dairy Queen
          next to the Ocean View restaurant because they had only
          $6.00 among them and Jimmy Johnson, the cute boy in Social
          Studies, lived on that street.


             10 years later, the group of 25-year-old girlfriends
             discussed where to meet for dinner. Finally, they agreed
             to meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the beer
             was cheap, the restaurant offered free snacks, the band
             was good, there was no cover and there were lots of cute
             guys..

             10 years later, the group of 35-year-old girlfriends
             discussed where to meet for dinner. Finally, they agreed
             to meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the cosmos
             were good, it was right near the gym and, if they went
             late enough, there wouldn't be too many whiny little kids.

             10 years later, the group of 45-year-old girlfriends
             discussed where to meet for dinner.. Finally, they
             agreed to meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the
             martinis were big and the waiters had tight pants and
             nice buns.

             10 years later, the group of 55-year-old girlfriends
             discussed where to meet for dinner. Finally, they agreed
             to meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the prices
             were reasonable, the wine list was good, the restaurant
             had windows that opened (in case of hot flashes), and
             fish is good for cholesterol.

             10 years later, the group of 65-year-old girlfriends
             discussed where to meet for dinner. Finally, they agreed
             to meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the
             lighting was good and the restaurant had an early bird
             special.

             10 years later, the group of 75-years-old girlfriends
             discussed where to meet for dinner. Finally, they agreed
             to meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the food
             was not too spicy and the restaurant was
             handicapped-accessible.

             10 years later, the group of 85-years-old girlfriends
             discussed where to meet for dinner. Finally, they agreed
             to meet at the Ocean View restaurant because they had
             never been there before.
