So besides my
fantastic and devilish
handsome husband, there is another "
significant other" if you will, in my life. Though we often tease about being married, and for a while the youth group at church called us a couple, we are in fact, just friends. The "just" in that has
substantial meaning behind it. As in, she is "just" the person I need to talk to to scream and vent. And "just" the person to make me laugh when life sucks.
I met Diet Coke (I'll call her that because she always has one in her hand) in a church group 8+ years ago. I am not sure what our original connection was. Our
views on religion were
different at the time, over the years of spiritual growth they've come pretty close to center for both of us. We were not close in age, she is 15 years older than me, but only in number. So really the only thing I can think of is that our souls
recognized each other as friend.
And friend is exactly what she has been. With the exception of my husband, there is no one else I feel as
comfortable talking with and sharing with. We do a lot of laughing, we are both witty. And we also do a considerable amount of complaining. But whatever it is I am doing, it is always funner with Diet Coke!

Wish I could think of something wittier to say other than"ohhhhh!". You have been such a great friend to me too. I love you dearly...even more than Diet Coke.
Awwwwwww... you two are the cutest wanna-be couple I've ever met in my whole life! It's really a shame that you're both straight. You would make great lesbians!
Yay for Diet Coke!
Carolyn is one of the best friend I've ever had also...... where should I start? The 7 years in the car or the 5-6 years in Sunday School class/ youth things. She is a great friend and a great person to be around. Kudos for "Diet Coke!"
