I have my Spotify playlist for The Lucky One playing, because that was one happy memory, and here we go...
- The first time I ever talked to her was bonding over our extremely sad kindergarten boys who weren't quite ready to go to school all day. We both left our crying children in the classroom and we cried in the parking lot.
- She can make me laugh with just a look. Usually that look is saying WTF?
- We
likelove the same books. And movies. And tv shows. - For a beautiful year we were both addicted to Criminal Minds to the extent that we could text a quote from a character and know which episode it was. "Charcoal socks..."
- She once sent me an email with the subject line BALLS. For the next two years that was her nickname.
- We like and dislike the same people.
- She may not agree with me, but I am hoping to be in-laws with her someday.
- She supports everything I do... work (she comes to shows and competitions), writing (I have 2 followers... and she's both of them), life (she just gets me).
- She answers that call when I just need to tell her about the cute Starbucks guy. Then she goes and gets a coffee just to see him too.
- For my birthday 3 years ago, she painstakingly printed every post I had ever written on my first blog. A year after that, Blake deleted it, but I still had the majority of my writings. I'm not sure she will ever understand how perfect that gift was, and still is.
I could go on and on, but I will leave you with this picture taken last year in Florida. Thank you for being my friend, Ping... I love you like a sister! Hope you had a great day...
