Today is my Best Guy Friend's birthday. We met my senior year at the University of Michigan. What began 10 years ago as a romantic liaison has developed into a wonderful platonic friendship. It hasn't always been easy at times to be his friend, but our commonality keeps us close. Outside of my family, he is one of the few people in my life that I want to know when I'm old and gray. Strange but true. Strange because to know our complete history one would ask: why still be friends? But the thing that comes back to me time and time again is how he was there for me when I needed him most. I'll never forget that.
So here's to you my best guy friend! Happy 31st birthday!

Thanks, Ursula...I'm all touched and stuff :)
