I guess I’ll start where I always do… my Natty Noo Noo. You have made this journey an experience, that’s for sure haha. Every fun, sad, happy, scary, and intense moment you’ve been by my side. I’m sure many times you’ve wanted to virtually smack me up side me head but we’ve done it! It’s finally over and we’re still as thick as thieves… that to me says it all. We’ve overcome every annoyance, issue, and problem we’ve faced, and we’ve done it together. I love your face! You make me smile and laugh daily, you listen when I’m ranting and raving about books I’ve read and loved, and not forgetting some of the more… ahem… disgusting conversations we’ve had haha… they make our friendship all the more real. You’re my soul sister. Keep the dream alive babe. I have every faith in you!! Don’t believe me just watch!! On that note… let’s dance…I’m too hot (hot damn) call a police and a fireman. I’m too hot (hot damn) make a dragon wanna retire man. I’m too hot (hot damn) say my name you know who I am. (I’m too hot (hot damn) am I bad bout’ that money… break it down now… Uptown funk you up!!!! Lol.

I always say that I'm going to be short and I always have so much to say. Where do I begin? As always my best friend forever and partner in crime Alicia, you are amazing lady and I loves ya, I never thought I would ever meet anyone who just gets me like you do. Its like our brain is one its so spooky when we can go for hours a day not speaking to each other then all of a sudden message each other the exact same message.
