A lifetime's not too long...


Cue "Another one bites the dust". Just kidding. Sort of.

We saw another House member married this weekend. And while there was a good mix of surrealism, joy, and "aww" moments that typically accompany weddings, the overwhelming sentiment this weekend (for me anyway; if you have a different sentiment, write your own blog!) was gratitude that friends can truly be friends for life.

The kind of friends that can pick up right where you left off--whether that was four months ago or 5 years ago. The kind of friends that let you pack up their leftovers in your to-go box, that jump on the bed with you to cuddle, that hug for the full 7 seconds it takes to release endorphins, that have so much infectious energy that even I ended up dancing for most of the night and loving it (we're talking crazy, CRAZY amounts of dancing here, people). The kind of friends who know all your quirks--and don't care if you know theirs--and love you anyways. All the time. No matter what.


I don't know when we'll all be together again, but it will be equally epic. And while I wish we could be physically closer, I know that truly, we're not far apart at all.
