i decided that i would write an entry about the 4 people i consider my best friends. then i decided trying to write about all of them in one entry would be really long. so this one's about lauren.
i met lauren the first week of school in 7th grade. she's transfered from a catholic school and i'd been in ga for a year from ct. people who never went to school in ct dont realize how alike those two things are.
our relationship was almost doomed when someone told her i said she was a whore. i didnt. but clearly that's a reason for her not to like me.
we had mutual friends though. she was dating one of the funnest guys ever, name withheld, and there was another lauren who she became attached to. by spring everything was cool and she we were having sleepovers and the usual 13 year old thang.
i liken our relationship to a sisterhood, but its more than that. we can tell each other everything and not get judged. we can hang out and do absolutely nothing and feel completely comfortable. we have similar sense of humor.
she's the only girl who i have been consistently close to. its funny. you hear alot of women say they dont hang out with other females too much but she is literally the only one. kesi says when we're together its like i'm a different person. probably cuz i hang around boys all day.
so after 10 years, (our friendship anniversary is oct 22) our friendship has grown and changed but i dont think i'd be such a sane person if i didnt have her to rely on. i think we were destined to be friends in order to keep the other from going totally nuts. my mom has a friend like that too- 25 years or so. no matter how far they are from each other they know the other is there.
so yes... lauren and i will be, pardon the cliche, friends forever. sans cats, no matter what she says. no cats woman! our kids will grow up together and be like cousins except that two of them will fall in love and have genetically superior children. lol.

*tear* quit beating me to the best friend posts!!! I was composing one in my head last nite in the bed. And it's frienaversary! lol If I can't have cats can I have dogs? And wouldn't our offspring have genetically superior children? They'd be like Brad Pitt and Angelina... u know, except black. I love you :-)
madam, i really think you should. its important to express how you feel about someone... sometimes they'd never know how important they are.
lauren, yes i know its friendaversary... and small dogs, please. i dont want you to be mean dog lady either.
omg i told kesi that our kids our gonna have kids and he said we have to get pregnant at the same time. i said, that's easy, lauren and i are two months apart. he really thought i was dumb for a minute. lol!
love the genetically superior children!! hilarious. the bf always exclaims, "y'all are such girls!!!" whenever i talk to stace or tell him abt our convos. what? can't i be a girl sometimes? geez. aren't friends great?
But I like big dogs. And the little ones are the mean ones, lol. And LMAO Al! He's so silly. Could you imagine us pregnant at the same time? Hahahaha poor daddies.
all my bf does is laugh at us. that or stare because he has no idea what we're talking about.
we'd be each other's back up. danger! poor daddies indeed.
