Tributes

Tonight I realized that I don't often have sentimental moments with friends. I have never really told them exactly what they mean to me. I figure that there is no better time than the present.

The following "testimonials" are in NO PARTICULAR ORDER.


A.Y. -- You are beautiful and amazing. You seriously have your shit together. You are responsible, smart, educated, motivated, kind, selfless, and funny. I could continue to try to describe you with adjectives and character traits, but that would take a very, very long time. In short, I don't know what I would do without you. You inspire me. I love you with all of my heart.

J.F. -- Where do I begin with this girl? Almost three years you approached me at school and asked me if I was gay; we have been friends ever since. We were nearly inseparable for quite a while, and it never got old. Well, except for those two weeks in VA last summer. You always keep things interesting, and you can always make me laugh. You put me in my place when I need it, yet keep from being resentful. I love you very much, and I am so glad to have you back.

M.M. -- Out of the people honored in this blog, I have known you the longest, yet we have been BFFs for the shortest amount of time. We have been through so many different things together, and I have told you things that I have never told anyone else in the world. I trust you. I love you. You are my friend, you are my brother, you are my son. Thank you for keeping it real, keeping me on my toes, and keeping me out of trouble laughing. You and I have many heart-to-heart's, so you should know how I feel about you. I love you.

N.G. -- To be continued...

J.M. -- You are the glue. You are the mother. You keep our group together. You keep our house together. You take care of the details. You will always lend an ear to listen if needed. You are firm in you values/morals/ethics, yet you are never judgemental. You drive me to the light rail when I need you to. I know that no matter what the situation, no matter what time of day, no matter how inconvenient, you will be there for me if/when I need you. Last, but certainly not least, you are morally superior, and everyone needs someone like that in their life. How else would I know that I am an irresponsible, fucked up slut, and that it is ok?


If you were not honored in this here blog of mine, it does not mean that you are not special to me. Just ask me, and I will tell you how I feel about you. Just make sure you catch me in the right mood.
