I love Fridays. Absolutely love them. When I was in college, Fridays meant that we went out and celebrated the beginning of the weekend. Now, I just want to sit on the sofa in my hoodie, drink a Shock Top (my favorite beer) with a wedge of orange and watch a few episodes of the Golden Girls.
I have a pretty unique talent. I can take almost any conversation or thought or experience and relate it to a Golden Girls moment. I've seen every single episode multiple times. I'll hear something or reflect on something that happened to me during the day and tell my husband about a time when Dorothy, Blanch, Rose or Sophia did something or said something funny. He laughs. I'm not sure if it is because he actually thinks I'm humorous or just a little bit crazy.
One of my favorite moments is when Dorothy and Rose are having a pretty serious conversation about how animals are dying as forests are being destroyed. Dorothy shakes her head and says "It's a shame." Rose replies, "You know what's a real shame? When you sit down and your thighs squish out to twice their size. Now that's a shame". I agree, Rose. I agree.
Happy Friday!
What a great post! I've watched a lot of The Golden Girls, but I don't remember that line. It's hilarious! What's weird is that I was thinking that very thing about fat thighs this morning. Loved this post!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend. ☺
What is about being in our 30's that we start thinking of things like this? The joys of womanhood.
