Yes I know...

...that you bought the computer I've been needing for years, even though you spent a decade telling me how crappy Macs are.

...that you had to buy a $5000 camera because I was getting a new one and you had to outdo me.

...that your new ipod touch trumps my 1st gen Nano.

...that your new house is going to be so much bigger than mine and that you need to run every detail of your planning stages by me.

...that your husband just got his 50000th raise this year and you have more money than you know what to do with.

...that you are better friends with her and that you have some undeniable need to call and tell me everytime you are having a "girl's day out" because it's sooo nice to get out without the kids from time to time. No, REALLY?

...that you've lost another 5lbs and you aren't really even trying.

...that you're getting together yet again...across the street from me...so the kids can play and you can have some much needed adult conversation.

...that you are smarter, more talented, and just generally better than me.


BUT, thanks so much for reminding me....again.
