Found: One Amazing Old Friend

Today I got the best phone call a person can get from my college roommate Ryan. She randomly called me because she's shopping for her wedding dress and was remembering a time when we went shopping for wedding dresses in college....just because...yeah that's right...we did it. Ok it was my idea.

ANYWAY...It was the best conversation ever. Ryan is the type of person who you can just pick up the phone and call after months and months of not talking and it feels like you just saw her five minutes ago. She's loyal and supportive and an amazing friend. We laughed together about old times and talked about things going on now.

I miss our times living together and running into each other in the living room. I remember us convincing our other roommate to skip class and going to Sonic for Cherry Limeades and hot dogs together. We laughed about the day we met, at Orientation before Freshmen year ever started. We were roommates in the dorm overnight and kept in touch, ,we stayed close friends all through Freshmen year and moved in together Sophomore year. Wonderful times.

I absolutely love hearing her voice and it reminded me that I'm not alone. Even when I think I am...even when I'm sitting here in my room alone for hours, I'm not alone. My oldest most dearest friends are there for me all the time. I hope we get to talk more. Because I love having her as my friend!

Oh and it made me go back and look at old pictures of us and I'm getting a bunch of them scanned and put on CD so I'll put some up.

Go

For all the love we've made
Just one thing stays the same
The lamp gets dusty
The pipes get rusty
But I don't want to wash my hands clean

You say you love me too
Then why won't you go through
With the nightly kisses
With the hits and the misses
If you can make it on your own then

Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go

I heard your moving van
But I didn't take a stand
You can't leave with them
You can't live without them
I never thought I'd want to let you

Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go

For all the love we've made
Just one thing stays the same
The lamp gets dusty
The pipes get rusty
But I don't want to wash my hands clean

You say you love me too
Then why won't you go through
With the nightly kisses
With the hits and the misses
If you can make it on your own then

Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go
