Good Friends Doing Good Things

I’m super lucky that I have friends who believe in certain causes. And I’m really lucky that I have friends who are active. If I didn’t, I 1) wouldn’t have anything to blog about, and 2) would not be able to partake in free beer.

On May 1, all of my Ya-Ya-s, both full-fledged and junior status, made their way to Thomas Bull Park in Montgomery NY for the 2010 Arthritis Walk.

There’s no such thing as a silly dream. There are, however, silly bbm conversations:

Ke​lly Carroll: If I had to sing karaoke, I would want to do Lady Gaga, Telephone. But only the Beyonce part. Like I would be featured in someone else’s karaoke
Au​drey Marie: I like this
Au​drey Marie: I would let you be the Beyonce to my Gaga but I’m not much for singing karaoke
Au​drey Marie: Maybe Biz is your Karaoke soul mate
Au​drey Marie: Or Dan Ankeles
Ke​lly Carroll: Hahahahahahahha
Au​drey Marie: He likes Karaoke, but specifically Neil Diamond. I don’t know how he feels about Gaga.
Ke​lly Carroll: Um, last time we chatted his favorite song was Kei$ha, Blah, blah, blah
Ke​lly Carroll: I think he’d be game
Au​drey Marie: Bahahaha
Au​drey Marie: I love it
Au​drey Marie: The dynamic may be better with him as Beyonce
Au​drey Marie: But I understand–you are always Beyonce
Au​drey Marie: We should float this idea to him. I like it.
Ke​lly Carroll: I am Beyonce always
