I'm grateful for the movie Bridesmaids, and particularly for a good memory I associate with this movie. Last summer, around the time when the mask mandate had gone away and then come back and it was clear that there were going to be more waves of covid, and wildfire smoke was starting to creep in, and things were just feeling like a bummer, my friend Karen hosted this really fun backyard event. She got an outdoor projector and tubs of popcorn and set up cozy seating, and we had an outdoor movie night. We watched this hilarious movie together and between Melissa McCarthy and lip synching to "Hold On" and just being with friends, everything felt so happy. I'm thankful for Karen and her Enneagram 7 energy that pulled this together; thankful for her friendship and for the friendship of the others that were there; and thankful for how good it feels to laugh together, and for this movie that brings the laughs from start to finish.
