There are certain "clubs" in life that I am not in, but desperately wish to be in. These "clubs" are activities that many people seem to enjoy and seem to be the in thing or seem to be cool. So here are some "clubs" that I want to be in, but have no hope of ever joining . . .
1) The red wine club. I want to like red wine. I really do. But I don't. I prefer white wine, but I must admit, I feel like a sissy when I am drinking it. It seems like sophisticated people drink red wine.
2) The coffee club. I want to like coffee, but no matter how many times I taste it, I cannot like it. I do, however, like the smell of it, and occasionally try to taste it in hopes that I grew new taste buds. But nope. Every time I go to "coffee" with friends I always get a hot chocolate with a shot of peppermint. They've started to call it going to "hot chocolate" with Laura.
3) I really wish I were young and cool and were into texting. I have texted. It's fine. I just don't understand why one wouldn't just pick up the phone. It's much more personal. Now, I do understand that sometimes, you can't talk and that texting is better. But 100 texts a day? Seriously. I am definitely not in that club and it makes me feel old.
4) Sometimes (notice I said sometimes) I want to belong to the perfect, well-behaved pastor's wives club. I am surely not part of that club, but am trying hard to achieve the well-behaved part.
I'm sure there are more "clubs" that I'd like to be a part of. If I think of any more, I'll write a post.
Does anyone out there have any "clubs" they'd like to be a part of?

Yes, Laura! I'd like to be part of the "go with the flow" club. I was at one point in my life, but now, my life is filled with all different types of schedules that make our little toddler world tick. Maybe in five years...?
I LOVE THIS POST. I am with you on the wishing I were part of the red wine, and coffee club. Noah is a red-wine conoisseur [can you believe that?] and loves, I mean LOVES, espresso drinks at Starbucks [he even has one named after him!].
I say I'm going for coffee but what I really mean is I'm having either a hot green tea with honey or an iced green tea.
But, I have to say I'm a total texting addict! It's addictive once you get rolling with it. :)
I think I should blog about the clubs too....great idea!!!!
I am with Tara on this one...love this post. I'll blog about the clubs on mine tomorrow...
I want to be a part a part of the "I don't have to work so when my kids go to school I can go to the club and work out" club. That's too long to fit on the back of a jacket though, so I will stay in the "We are a two income family so when my kids go to school I go to work and am too tired to work out most days." We are too tired to make jackets with that logo.
