It's not that I would go out and party like I used to, but it's that I feel too old to have that option now:) I saw a documentary not long ago about these women in their 80's and they were wistful for the wild days of their youths. It was really sweet.<br /><br />I liked this Tina! Here's to all of us who COULD start fires again IF we wanted to;)Valerie Boersmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08372768206512562126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-90570037977447759172014-02-20T14:41:12.248-06:002014-02-20T14:41:12.248-06:00I think you did a great job with capturing the moo...I think you did a great job with capturing the mood. It's funny, my husband and I recently had a similar conversation about this. We used to go out every weekend to listen to music (one of our favorite activities). The music usually doesn't get started until around 9PM, if we're lucky. Lately, we've not been going out and we had a similar conversation as your women had. You captured the mood perfectly. That questioning feeling about wanting to go, but also wanting to stay. AND it is a wonderful interpretation of the prompt. I loved this one:~)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15995684156785464334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-74662934025560370332014-02-19T17:52:47.768-06:002014-02-19T17:52:47.768-06:00You are right about the ending.

I was having trouble with what I wanted to say, and I just decided to go to bed.<br /><br />And I do occasionally want to go out and be twenty again, but without the fire starting.TMWHickmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11099277984216556857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-84362776954474417262014-02-19T07:14:49.400-06:002014-02-19T07:14:49.400-06:00in my 40's I truly long for those wild(er) nig...in my 40's I truly long for those wild(er) nights of my 20's and early 30's. Esp when there is Kindergarten homework and watching ONE DIRECTION videos (Jacob really likes that band) over and over as my nightly routine. <br /><br />I wish the ending would have been more precise. Not better , it's written well, but just more to the point. We WANT TO GO OUT, we just don't know how...maybe not have the last line/paragraph at all...<br />leave it at ..<br />"smiled at the memory" <br />let us drawn our own conclusions? <br /><br />Kirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17894442143508446312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-36977325685554847532014-02-18T22:19:45.947-06:002014-02-18T22:19:45.947-06:00You scared us a few times, Barbie!

For some reason strange this makes me think of the "Fun Girls" from the Andy Griffith show, all grown up and staying in on a Saturday night. I think you nailed it. mjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08408037569157979680noreply@blogger.com
