Sex in the City… it’s colloquial

After about a week of planning the stars and our schedules finally aligned allowing the girls *wink, wink* and i to get out and see Sex and the City.  With high, but not too high, expectations i rushed to the theater after work, got my gallon of diet coke and a pretzel and filed into the packed theater.  I was sadden by the preview of Gregg Behrendt’s blight to women being transformed from hard bound crap to cinematic disappointment which would leave an entire theater of single women depressed and women in a less than stable relationship full of doubt.  Because the fact is Gregg, i’m just not that into you!  With that being said, i was quickly cheered up when i heard the all to familiar song about my four favorite NYC ladies.  Without giving and entire review and or spoiling the movie if you have yet to see it, i will just say it was wonderful.  Not too over the top, it was more like a really good two hour episode.  And yes, i cried….a lot.  

Later we went down the street to enjoy a Texas Cosmo…aka Frozen Margaritas.  Trying to ignore the horrible, and i do mean horrible Karaoke and a brain freeze we sat there and jokingly assigned characters to each other.  Don’t roll your eyes, i know you do it too….don’t argue, every group does this.  If its with Sex and the City, Friends or Golden Girls you’ve done it and everyone always wants to be Carrie, Samantha, Rachel, or Blanche respectively…. am i right or am i right.  Yeah, thought so…anyhow, we were pretty honest…except for me i kinda wanted to be Samantha, probably because she’s such a coug.  As we set there and validated why we each fit certain rolls i realized it was kinda true.  No, i don’t believe anyone of us was exactly like one of those characters, i just mean i could definitely see everyone’s roll in the group.  We all need the hopeful one, the one that sees good in everything, the slightly cynical one, the funny one and the one that knows (and sometimes doesn’t) the exact right time to say something inappropriate, and by inappropriate i mean sexual. It was just about that time, the time when sex because the dinner table conversation, that someone pointed out they number of partners for each of our favorite characters was so high, but then went on to explain that for NYC that was normal due to the population.  Where as you might have 20 or so partners in NYC you wouldn’t have that many in a small town like say i don’t know Wimberly, Tx… because if you did you’d probably end up sleeping with all the eligible partners, the not so eligible partners, their cousins and possibly your 3rd cousin twice removed…i mean it’s a small town for heaven’s sake!  This is when my not so fantastical brain decided to jump in and describe sex as “colloquial” and it went something like this: “Oh! So sex is colloquial!!  It’s Colloquial!”  That dim comment was paired with a very big hand gesture ( like ya do ) and left the table just smiling and nodding.  About the 3rd time i repeated it i knew what i had said…and that they were being kind enough to keep their comments to themselves.  Luckily i called myself out, then tried to rationalize what i had said, explaining i meant sex is to your area and my brain jumped the tracks to the term colloquial as in colloquial saying…do ya see where i was somewhat on an almost logical path…slightly.  I guess in that situation i would be considered Rose (see Golden Girls reference above.)  So to wrap up that neat little package here is a big thank you to all my Carries, Samanthas, Charlottes, and Mirandas, without you i would be lost.

In other news, my new home slice Kanye got a big F*You at Bonnaroo and my girl Miley is at it again!  Kanye, don’t say anything you’ll regret!!!  We’ll always love you and you glowtastic music here in ATX.  Miley, *sigh* i am going to lend you some books on internet safety…do you know how easy it is to hack something these days!  E-mail & MySpace = not the best way to share your sex kitten pics … and really, i wouldn’t do anymore self portraits if i were you.  I’m not giving up hope just yet, you can turn this sinking ship around…you’ve still got time!  This will also be my last post…from this computer!  I just got a new addition to the family and I am so excited oh to have a full screen to look at once again will be like Heaven!

  1. Sex and the City seems to have a polarizing effect on both men and women… people either love the movie or they hate it
