(I decided to take of beebizzle's 30 Day Challenge. I doubt I will finish it, but then again that's ok! This one is probably going to be atrociously written thanks to all the wonderful meds I am on. I don't even know what day it is haha.)
Dear Best Friend,
I don't remember the exact day or circumstances in which we got to know each other. You DJ'd a lot for "that dance thing" and I remember seeing you in other social circles I sometimes sat on the outside of. I do remember the first time I realized that your brother (who was best friends with my boyfriend-at-the-time's brother.) It was New Year's Eve and when my boyfriend and I came in he recognized you, and that's when I made the connection.
It was a couple years later when a mutual friend came up with the idea of going to NYC together, since you had family up there. The drive up there was insane, we couldn't hardly see! And then there was that time you almost hit a bus head on while trying to pass another bus. I won't ever forget that!
We shared the tiny room upstairs at your grandparents house. I loved their house. It was so small but filled with so many lovely memories. You could see the love everywhere. And your grandparents were so SMALL! I wanted to pick up your grandma so bad sometimes. I mean, I'm only 5'5" and I still had to bend over to hug her. And your grandpa had the greatest Italian accent. After that weekend, I secretly wished I could have been adopted by your grandparents. They were so cool.
Then there was your birthday! The first time I ever had alcohol, haha I was so afraid I was going to get in trouble, even though I only had a very small amount of champagne. I met your older sister at your party. I liked her independent spirit and how she embraced feminine power. I liked talking with both of you all through the night.
We've been through so many similar things in our lives; you've been a great source of encouragement and support. One of my favourite nights at your house was Valentine's Day and Adam and I came over and we watched The Office and trash-talked our ex's allll night long, and then went shopping the next day. I wished I had listened to you more when it came to break-ups. I know I only caused myself more pain, and I know you'd get mad when I didn't listen, but you also understood that sometimes a person just needs to be a total butthead and make themselves miserable anyways even after you've done all you can.
But the best part of all this, is how we became a family. It still blows my mind because I never in a million years would ever think something like this would happen. Who would've thought that our parents would have met randomly and then discover that their kids had been friends for going on 6 years. I know we were both mad as hell at the situation at first. It's true, our parents were being incredibly stupid. They got engaged practically just a few weeks after they met each other and my mom's divorce wasn't even final yet, and then got married just weeks after it was final. We both threatened not to go to the wedding and spent nights at my house with J. complaining the whoooole night. Haha J. didn't know what to do or say so she just sat there silently.
Apparently one really should be careful what they wish for because I had a fleeting thought about how cool it would be to be adopted by your grandparents and then 3 years later that exact thing happened. You're one of the few people from my past that I still want to stay connected to. I'm so glad that it was your dad that my mom ended up marrying instead of some other people's dads I know haha.
It's been a wild ride since I met you. You've been there through douchebags and breakups to moves and marriages and rebellion. You're my sounding board when I just need to vent and you always give me a new perspective to view things through.
You're the best friend, fellow Zim enthusiast, AND stepsister (which is probably the coolest thing of all.)
