So then…I mock the other moms (aka the “Margarita Mamas”) for bailing so early after dining at a local restaurant. “It’s only 8:30! It’s too early to go home to our kids and husbands!”
But we’ve finished dinner and some of them blame extreme fatigue from a week of working all day and corralling kids all night.
Kate says, “To hell with you guys, Darcy and I are goin’ to the Cantina to drink!”
We don’t.
Truth is, we’re pretty tired from working all day and corralling kids all night too.
But the other moms don’t know that.
So later that night, when one of the Mamas, Mindy, sends me an email with the contact info for the orthodontist she had recommended earlier at our dinner, I reply:
Mindy:
THANK YOU for the orthodontist referral — I will call him!
–Darcy
P.S. Kate and I are still out clubbing. I’m emailing you from the bathroom where I’m snorting coke with a motorcycle gang. Kate’s dancing topless on a table with a fireman.
Mindy takes this in stride and simply emails back:
OK, send pics….

(*If link doesn’t work, it’s possible Kate and I didn’t go out drinking after dinner after all. In fact, I mentioned that above. Were you not paying attention? Did you actually click here to see pics? I’m worried about you.)
(What do YOU do on YOUR Girls Night Out? Do you get up to mischief — or is everyone too pooped to pop? Have you, in fact, danced topless with a fireman? I’m sort of obsessed with firemen. So definitely send pics. Of the firemen. Not your topless dance.)

Thank you! Your comment made my day!
Crap it is terrible not to have any wild nights out to talk about. SIGH age. I clicked the link because I’m hopeful that other people are less mundane than what I am.

I knew girls in my youth who enjoyed coupling with uniforms. I called them uniform effers. It did not matter if they were firemen or policemen as long as they were in uniform. My favorite was M______ S________. It was rumored she had sex only twice in high school. Once to the Air Force Base and once to the Marine Base.
