To call someone a friend to me is like calling them a sister/brother, and I love my friends as such. You can tell a lot about a person by who they call a friend. As friends go, I have the best...
TINA-
My best friend...I met her in 7th grade while cheating off her history tests. She tought me a lot about
what true friends are/should be. We helped each other through the
"tough High School years", through the break-ups that we never thought we would get over, through the problems with parents not understanding, step-parents, and through anything else you can imagine. At graduation, we ran away from the rest of the crowd and did our own little celebration dance all by ourselves...(we were idiots, and you had to be there!) She has been by myside through every triumph/failure in my life for the past 13 years, and has supported me every step of the way...no matter how stupid I was at the time! I wish/hope everyone finds someone like her...oh and by the way, she IS single now and moving back into the area!(there will soon be a picture of us together on here) She got a job transfer/promotion, and I am extremely happy for her because she now has cash and only has to work one job, and for me because I am getting my best friend back!
LISA-
We met 2 1/2 yrs ago. The first day I met her she squirted Pine-Sol in her eye while mopping her floor and I was afraid I was going to have to rush her to the Emergency room! Well, She is not blind (thank God!) When around her, I turn into a stand-up comedian. She makes me feel good about myself, and I love her for it! She even does the fonky donky dance with me in the car!!! The other drivers might stare but we do not care!
Cindy-
I have know Cindy for about 2 years now. We met when I was a staffing agent for a local temp agency and she was a temp. We immediately became the best of friends. She is the type of person that can have fun anywhere... We could have fun sitting in the city dump! She just had a quality that very few people have, anything is fun as long as Cindy is there! She has recently moved to Phoenix, AZ and I am PISSED! I am taking donations to bring her back home though, so if you feel sympathy for this poor girl who really misses her friend... Please mail check or money order payable to me to the "Bring Cindy's Hoochie Mama Butt Home Fund"!
Jaime-
I met Jaime about 10 years ago through a mutual friend, and we immediately hit it off. (This to the left is a picture of the two of us on New Year's eve) She is probably one of the people that most impressed me. She has gone through a lot in her life, and has always come out of everything with her head held even higher that it was when she went in.
We now work for the same company and are surprisingly not sick of seing each other yet. (Thanks for helping me get on Jaime!)
She has a beautiful little red headded son who is 1 1/2 years old and a husband who is really great to them both. If you were to ever want to get the "real dirt" on me Jaime would be the one to ask... She is the "ALMIGHTY GOSSIP QUEEN!!!"
Jason
Well, to begin... I have known Jason for a year and a half. Jason is a real cutie and he knows it. His face could fit on the cover of any issue of GQ Magazine. He is probably the only person that I know who is a bigger ham than I am. He has a great voice and I love it when he sings Harry Connic Jr. songs, but what I love even more than that is his rendition of the song "Cuban Pete" Jim Carrey style! (the song from The Mask) He is one of the best cooks I know and I really miss his cooking! And the Tapioca pudding!!!! He has since moved to Arkansas for a job. (thanks to that damn oil price drop last year!)Hey if I raise enough money trying to bring Cindy home we can work on getting Jason home too!!!
Julia "Lia"
This woman has a bigger personality than me! She is a very outspoken and classy lady that I am proud to call my friend...Lord knows I'd not like to be on her bad side! She is very quick with words and is totally hillarious! She is going to have to pay for the plastic surgery I will soon need if she does not stop making me laugh all of the time! (smile lines!!!) She lives in Tulsa, OK but I do still get to see her because unlike Cindy the Hootch, she comes to see me! Julia can bring out the best in my personality... she is a very honest person, and I thrive off of her energy. I feel very lucky to be able to call her my friend. (Hey does anyone want to pay my phone bill????)
