3. I have three friends...long-time friends...

that I see 3-4 times a year who I can be 100% myself. I can have that extra cocktail, I can tell the off-color joke, I can complain about my wife, I don’t get nagged about anything, I can cuss with abandon, etc. no pretense about anything. We laugh our asses off for the weekend and bitch about young people these days. It’s a 100% judgement free zone. Basically, we revert to being jr high boys again!

In fact, I need to set up a weekend for the boys soon.

I cherish those times!
