BFFS since 1998...and now I've just realized that's two freaking decades, Lord. So much love!

Fellow OU alumna & leaper-of-faith who decided, one chilly night as we closed out the bar, we should pack our bags and high-tail it to D.C. together to find our fortunes. She found a husband, I found my way to Grad School. (You can decide who won that one.)

An alphabetized seating chart in 5th grade really worked out for us. She's in Louisville now, but we'll always have England 2007.

Recognizing our destined soul-sisterhood wherein we were each "the other awkward middle school quiet kid with her nose always stuck in a book" we struck up a fast friendship that has become the codependent-bordering-psychic relationship that we have today.

A best friend of Ian's and growing friend of mine with whom I look forward to making many, many memories with :)
