To My Best Friend
This blog post is written to my best friend who explores my blog on her cell phone.
If you know me, you probably know Karen as she has been my sidekick since high school. During my sophmore of year, she moved to my block. I didn’t realize that she had moved to my block right away. She recants a story of watching me walk my dog on New Years Eve. Being 15 was hard for me (as it is for many) and Karen was just what I needed to keep me laughing.
Initially, Karen scared me. She wasn’t girly at all and had a very tough exterior. It was the 80’s and her leather motorcycle jacket scared me. Hell, she scared most of our all girls Catholic high school! We initially started talking on the bus ride home and she surprised me when she told me that she moved across the street from me. Of course, Karen and I went to school together and came home together.
In the last ten years, Karen became part of my family. She’s everything that you would hope for in a friend. Although she doesn’t cook, she loves to wash dishes. Plus she knows some great take out places
So cheers to my best friend. I’m lucky to have you and I expect to be giggling through old age!
Hugs,
marlene
