I'm dating the most perfect person for me. I have so much fun when we're together. But the problem is, he lives 3 hours away from me. Which brings me to the point that I have been churning lately. I need girlfriends. I miss roommates. And while this may sound pathetic. Hear me out. Girlfriends fill a role that can last through the changes of life. I consider some of my best friends to be the same girls I was friends with when I was 7. Seriously. The problem is: all my friends are all over the country. The Barlow Center interns all went back to Provo. The holidays came and went, and now in the first few months of the new year I am faced with the daunting reality that I need to start settling into social circles here in my new state.
This is why God invented Skype. We could, say, make cookies clear across the country, or plan our dream houses that will be next door to each other with a giant swing set that has a slide connecting the two back yards for our kiddos. Just sayin'. But you're right, girlfriends weather the storms with you, love you at your worst and best, and will try on dozens of funky hats with you in a department store without getting bored. It's one of the many reasons why I love you. So pull out your webcam and American Girl Dolls and let's play!!
