Last Friday me and 4 girlfriends saw the premiere of Sex and The City.  I for one wasn't disappointed, but I loved the series.  About 45 minutes into it I was a little worried, it was slow and (like the whole movie) predictable.  But as the film moved on I got past the few roadblocks and realized the whole movie wasn't about fashion, over-priced cocktails, sex or even the one true love most all of us are looking for.  The movie, like the series, was about friendship. Plain and simple.

I'm sure men bond with other men on some sort of level but I don't think it's the same for them as it is for we girls.  I can't really see a guy holding his best friends hair out of her face as she barfs up the one too many margarita she had in a Waffle House restaurant at 2 am, but I guess he might.  I can't really imagine a guy watch his best friend try on 3 dozen different dresses she needs to wear to a function that her ex will be attending with his new squeeze, but I suppose he might.  I can't imagine a guy stalking a former lover's home at midnight to see who might be making a late night bootie call, but you never know?

I love my girlfriends every bit as much as Carrie loves Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte.  Rare is the opportunity we shop for $700 shoes or attend a club opening in Manhattan, but we are always there for each other, and I sincerely hope we always will be!
