Our Response to Don's "Guys' Perspective" on Girlfriend Getaways

 
Okay, when we mention this business; this Girlfriend Getaway business, our guy friends' eyes light up, and they become almost giddy: "OHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHH! So you guys are going to be coordinating, like slumber parties? With girls in SHORTIE-PAJAMAS?! HAVING PILLOW FIGHTS!!!!!"

Please wait a minute, while I finish my eye-rolling.

There, thanks.

I know it is just the utterly predictable Y chromosome driving the fantasies, and THEIR ideas involve a few ahem additional elements and scenarios. But the basics? Kind of sound like a lot of fun.

When I envision it, I think "Hey, I totally have those awesome pink shortie-pajamas. And I LOVE slumber parties - when was the last time I had one of those?" (ed. note: a one-night stand does not constitute a slumber party. No judging)

And the pillow fights? Those sound like a great way to relieve the stress of the workweek, to be quite honest. Yoga-schmoga. And if one of your friends has been a little haughty and full or herself lately, you can use the heavy pillow on her. You know, the one pulled from the leather couch.

In the guys' vision of the slumber party, the night would inevitably conclude with the sprinkler system activating, subsequently drenching the shortie-pajamas, and causing the girlfriends to spontaneously, for no apparent reason, make out with each other.

In my vision, the pillow fighting results in everyone losing at least 5 pounds, necessitating the consumation of 4 wooden-spoonfulls of freshly-mixed cookie dough. To replace the electrolytes...or something like that.

some girlfriends of mine got kicked out of a hotel in NY for deciding to reinact this male fantasy just for themselves at the end of a long bachelorette party evening. they all put on PJs or tshirts and undies and had a knock down drag out pillow fight. and yes, i've seen the photos, boys. i think security had a really difficult time having to ask them to find a new hotel...
