Martinis at Midnight

The Pink Lady Martini

The Pink Lady Martini

As always insight comes to me in the latest hour of the evening. On this special evening I came to the great conclusion that as much as I would like my girlfriend to get her shit together, alas she never will. We are all destined to have at least one friend in our life that never "gets it". I think it is this person that makes all the rest of us realize that we have grown up. God help us. We actually grow up! It is quite ironic that the one, who never gets it, is the one that everyone thinks has it all?

The Pink Lady martini is something that you only drink on very special occasions! Why? Because too many of this martini will make you doubt all the normal things in your life. This is the martini that can make you sit on the fence permanently, because when you drink this martini, you never have to make a decision. The Pink Lady is a mixture of Razberi Stoli Vodka, grapefruit juice and lemon juice but the special part is the topper of champagne with pomegranate juice. This drink is very girlie because it is served with a sugared rim and is a beautiful color of pink. Unfortunately very few men will be drinking this martini unless they are gay or very secure in their masculinity.

Why is it that the women who appear to have it all, the great looks, body and personality are the ones with the biggest issues? Women that have the perfect boyfriend, great social life and career are the ones that are the most miserable. Is it a case of nothing is ever good enough? Or is it a case of the grass is always greener? In most cases I believe that these women attract men that are too accommodating, the ones that very rarely tell her to get over herself, the ones that everyone else thinks are soooo great but she does not really respect. These are the men that give and give but she can not totally commit to because deep down she does not believe that she deserves them. Why? Because inside she knows that she is a bitch. These women are very much like the Pink Lady martini because they are all sweet and pretty on the outside but on the inside they possess a bitterness that consumes them and unless it is mellowed out by a really sweet guy it is just plain ugly.

We as women all have at least one friend that is always in a dilemma, as we grow older we slowly cut these drama queens out of our lives but we generally keep at least one or two around. Why?

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Because it is entertaining of course!”

However sometimes the drama can be a bit much. The dilemma usually reaches a peak when the drama queens gets everything that they want and god help them if they have to make a decision! Do they take the stable safe road or do they throw out the good stuff, and go for the drama in the hope that the grass is greener. They usually torment everyone in their lives buy sitting on the fence about what to do because this drags out the drama, which is what they crave. Unfortunately, this is what is generally their demise because they end up hurting the great guy in the process. Due to the fact that he does not know whether he is coming or going. They also drive their girlfriends crazy because they ignore all the advice that they continue to ask for, so the girlfriends feel like a broken record.

These are the girlfriends that appear to have everything on the outside but on the inside they are just so insecure and desperately screwed up. But they are also the ones that love the chaos and never want to change. They are the perfect Pink Lady martini because no matter how much you stir it up, when you finish drinking you will always be a little screwed.

Conclusion:

Is there an answer for the woman who on the outside has everything but fails to notice? Will she ever be happy with what she has or is she so unsettled that she will always want to create more drama in her life? The Pink Lady martini is a drink that is beautiful on the outside and possesses the sweetness from the sugared rim. But when you start drinking there is a certain amount of sourness that can take over the martini unless you have a very sweet man around to mellow it out. Remember that consuming to many of this martini will only cause the drama queen in all of us to come out. A little bit of drama is good every now and again, just for entertainment sake. But when the dilemmas start to take over that is when you know you have had to much. Never consume too many Pink Lady martinis because it will surely lead to the demise of something that is really sweet and you do not want to end up as a woman who never "gets it!"
