Poppin' Bottles, Gettin' Tipsy



Upon discussing our upcoming reunion with one of my most treasured friends from college (also an Abigail/Abby) whom I never see anymore because she lives in North Carolina and I don't:



 Abigail Owens: it's been too long!
and, more than that, how to put it...
 Abigail Owens:  like, it's not only been too long
but i feel like people say that when they miss "the good old days" or whatever
and i... don't, particularly
i mean, of course i miss you
but i have definitely come into myself a ton more in the past few years, and i'm excited for our kindred spirits to meet up as adults
not to sound like a total weirdo
ok this is my last ditch effort at verbalizing what i mean:
 me:  TOTAL WEIRDO
 Abigail Owens:  instead of "it's been too long"
i feel like... "it's time"
 me:  ooh, i like that
and i agree wholeheartedly
i am really looking forward
i love that it's been so long in a way
because now we're aged to perfection and it's time to pour a glass of our vintage!
 Abigail Owens:  so even if i am a total weirdo (totally am, let's be honest), you get it! 
 Abigail Owens:  hahaha. yes.
 me:  and then we can re-bottle it and pour another perfectly-aged glass later!
 Abigail Owens:  damn straight.
 me:  WHO'S THE WEIRDO NOW
 Abigail Owens:  hahaha
i mean
i'm the one who is like on the brink of tears at our perfect vintage selves here
 me:  save them for our next vintage! we can jack up the price when we sell it and say they're truffle oil tears or some shit.



If I didn't hate them so much, I would post a friendship quote right here.

    how i love you!

    If you didn't hate friendship quotes so much, I would give you one of my old favorites that my father used to say to me:

    "Reunions with dear old friends are like enjoying a bottle of wine that has aged to its perfect vintage, now that it's gotten all dusty in North Carolina. I mean the basement."

    (what?)
