person you've been closest to the longest


This is Fishy.  Well that's what I call her at least.  She was my first 'person'.  We've been BFFs since 5th grade.  Back when besties used to make friendship bracelets and then you'd melodramatically hand it back if you guys got into a fight.  She was the first person I knew that had a cat.  We use to talk on the phone for HOURS back in the day before cell phones, and you had to call their house and talk to their mom/dad before they would put you on with the person you were calling.  We'd clock at least 1-2 hours of chitchat every night.  Her dad's funny, he was the first funny dad I've ever met. 

We've been through thick and thin.  Fishy's great cause she can always relate to what you're feeling and she can empathize.  These days we don't talk for hours daily anymore, but we don't really have to.  She'll always be there for me and I for her.  And that's comforting. 

This picture was taken on my wedding night.  If you look closely, you can see my garter around her leg.  Yep, she spent the night with me.  She was the first person I slept with as a married woman.  Before you get any crazy ideas, Louis and I had to get married twice.  We had to do the Chinese wedding on Saturday, so Fishy stayed with me on Friday night after the White wedding.
