The Ladies who Brunch

So it has been 15 years since 4 best friends took on the streets of Manhattan.  Carrie, Miranda, Samantha, and Charlotte strutted their way down 5th Avenue and into the hearts of so many women.  If you don't know what I am talking about then you haven't watched the greatest television show of all time: Sex and the City.

Now I haven't always been an avid follower of the show. It wasn't until I decided to see the first Sex and the City movie.  I fell in love with the characters, fashion, writing, and New York.  Since then I seemed to find Sex and the City reruns on all the time.  It only took a few days for me to figure out when they were on and what channels so that I could watch them all day, every day.  I found myself wanting to live the lives of Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda.  I wanted the clothes they wore, the apartments they lived in, and the jobs they had.  Even though I may not be able to relate to all of the problems that the ladies deal with on the show, there is definitely one thing that every girl can relate to: great girlfriends.

That is the thing about Sex and the City.  It makes you want to have a group of great girlfriends who you can brunch with every Sunday and gossip about the weeks events.  I think that I have definitely found that group over the years.  Friendships evolve and change...some friends are your high school friends, some are just class friends, or even work friends.  Only a chosen few enter into that circle of secrets, laughs, tears, and love that is your close group of girlfriends.  After attending college I think that like Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte I have found my soul mates.  I know it sounds so corny, but it's true.  These girls have made my life better and I know that we will be friends forever.  Right now distance separates us, but already we are calling or texting one another just about every day.

So today I am spending my day watching the Sex and the City marathon while planning a weekend getaway with my girlfriends.  I can't wait to gossip, go out, shop, and even brunch with my girlfriends.
