I heard a song on my CD yesterday that made me think of you, so I called you. You laughed and said you had just heard a song on the radio that made you think of us. Which got me thinking how your truly my best friend.
How you became my best friend....
1) I worked on a Pathology term paper for 3 months, the paper got lost somewhere in my floppy disk (yes Floppy disk!) and I seriously lost my mind! I was overworked, over schooled, under slept and seriously exhausted. It was past midnight you patted my back and told me to go to sleep. You would help me out. I cried all the way upstairs but quickly fell like a rock. Next morning my term paper was nealty printed, with a lovely title page and nicely put in a plastic cover. You drove all night and found a 24 hr Kinkos, they found the file and you came home and left in on the table by my book bag. YOU SAVED ME!
2) I got the flu...BAD! I was running a high fever, you found me upstairs almost delirious. You called your mom for help. You ordered me into the tub clothes on and all (what a gentleman)to bring down my fever. Then you took me to the doctor, fed me, sang to me, did silly little skits and watched over me.3)When I got the call that my grandmother was dying, you didn't hesistate to jump into my little Tracker and take the 10 hour trip back home with me....you allowed me to mourn, you drove me all the way back home afterwards even though you barely knew how to drive stick shift.
4) When I was the odd man out and the gals had dates, you kept me company. We watched movies, I had Braised Tofu, you had Sweet and sour chicken... our nights were awesome!
5) You made running less lonely, I found a running partner in you, though I found out later you actually hate running...stinker!
6) You made me feel good about myself. You erased my negative thinking on body image...thank you.
7) You always had/have a joke. Nothing is safe around you...you'll find humor in everything. You crack me up!
8) You were actually at the end of the isle waiting for me (even if I WAS 30 minutes late). If it was any other, they would ran when they could!! Your brave.
9) When I was exhausted, worn out and couldn't go on anymore you sang a Beatles song in my ear to soothe me. Odd thing now is when I hear that song I think of painful labor.
10) You love me unconditionally.
Happy Valentines to my Best Friend....my husband.

Awe so sweet!
That was the sweetest thing! We should all take time to reflect on our loves like you did. Thank you for reminding me how important my own best friend is.
