"Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" - Cyndi Lauper
I wanted to end this weekend on a happy note and almost gave up hope until my baby sis decided to make a night of it and watch a movie. We could've easily picked any one of her many Disney cartoons to recite the whole thing line by line, but of course I'm in no mood for princesses finding their Prince Charmings. No mood at all.
We were gonna go back to the 80's with The Breakfast Club (which we've seen way too many times) or Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (but we didn't have it),
so we put on To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar. 
I gotta say, it's nothin' like a great Drag Queen movie to lift me outta my slump! It reminded me to refocus on the positive and keep trudging along no matter how rocky the road and how difficult the journey. I know I sound like I'm full of shit because I'm as pessimistic as they get, but I'm working on it. And with the help of my sisters, I know I'll get through it because well...I have.
I may not have many friends, but my "clique" is definitely my flesh and blood. They've been here for me through everything and I know that some who don't know will argue that it's because we lived in the same house and pretty much had to share the same room for most of our lives. But trust me, not all siblings are close and this is what I cherish the most: to have 2 of the best sisters one could ever hope for. I always tell them how I, being the middle child, fuse them together and that I'm their balance; their soul mate. But they put me back together when things fall apart. The eldest is my backbone and strength and the youngest is my spirit and hope. They're my heart and soul. I do love my queens, and in this case my queens are my sisters.
Lyrics:
I come home in the morning light
My mother says when you gonna live your life right
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
And girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun
The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father yells what you gonna do with your life
Oh daddy dear you know you're still number one
But girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls - they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun
Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
I want to be the one to walk in the sun
Oh girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls - they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun,
They want to have fun,
They want to have fun...
