A girlie girl is what I am not. I do appreciate girl things, like makeup, perfume, getting pedi's and manicures, and especially happy hours! But it's more of the conversations that sometimes tend to go along with those events that I just don't feel I belong. I don't obsess or drool over male movie actors, I don't yearn for a whole day of pampering at an expensive spa. So going to brunch on a Sunday is...ok. Even though I'd much rather hang out with friends and have a drink or two, than sit at home; I think it depends on who you go out with. I love my girlfriends and some times it's the short meetings that are better than the long ones. Small doses. Basically I sometimes go to outings to remind myself why I only do these on occasion.
The conversations get to be mindless, and uninteresting, and sometimes (only sometimes) they can lead to bitchy-ness. I don't Need to wear makeup everyday, I don't Need to have my nails done, and wear the right shoes, or the outfit to match the bag, and personally I don't Want to either!
I think I enjoy doing some of these things alone. I'd rather go get my pedicure by myself and really relax. I like shopping for clothes on my own terms and at my own pace (which is rather quick and efficient). The only thing I'd like to do, that takes longer than 45 min., is reclining outside on my patio with a book and a chilled btl of wine, getting a little sun, and perhaps even falling asleep!

I do agree with you. I am more of a girly girl then you but I am not so much a girls girl. I rather hang with the guys then be with a bunch of females as they talk about whos, who and whats what. I try as much as possible not to get sucked into that. I like our outings when you're here. I miss my friend.
Luv ya liz-bean..
