Recently, during one of my weekly voyages to the grocery store, I spied a young lady sporting a t-shirt that read “Look out, I’m a Party Animal.” I had no doubt she indeed was a “party animal” as she shuffled past me in her rumpled tee, pajama bottoms and personal hygiene that screamed, “I just rolled out of bed after an all-night bender to come here and get some Gatorade and Alka Seltzer.”
The proper middle-aged-Minnesota-mom part of me wanted to shake my head in dismay, but there was another part of me that wanted to first-bump this young lady and yell, “YOU GO GIRL!”
Ahhh, to be young, spontaneous, adventurous and broke again.
Though, I would be OK with skipping the “broke” part.
Looking back on my 50 years in this earth, I am 100% positive I’ve always been more of a Party Sloth than a Party Animal. Even Back -in-the-Day I was happiest when I was happiest when I was nestled in a pile of barn hay with a good book and at least one pet.
And honestly, not much has changed. I am still pretty “slothy” when it comes to celebrations and adventure. I’d like to say that I am a Ride or Die kind of gal, but that would be a bald-faced LIE. A cutting-edge Saturday night for me still involves good books and at least one pet (minus the barn hay).
So for my fellow Party Sloths out there, let’s unite! Let’s slowly raise our sloth-y paws to the sky and…never mind.
That sound like too much work. But since the holidays are just around the corner, here is my Ultimate Sloth Gift Guide for the Party Sloth in your Life.
