That is not false modesty. I have good intentions, but I am flaky and very forgetful. I don't have an agenda with my friendships, but I am also thoughtless and oblivious. And since Cal is now part of the package, half the time, when I leave somewhere, I feel like I've just laid waste to a person's entire sense of inner piece. In short, I demand a large amount of forgiveness, patience, accommodation, and charity from my friends. And I feel constant gratitude toward each of them.
I think I'd like to initiate a "Friends" series on my blog. I've seen others do it, and was very impressed by the various posts I've seen. It'll take me awhile, I know, because I'd like to document several different kinds of friends: old and new, distant, family, brief relationships and very lasting... all of them. And in no particular order. Everyone is important.
I think about people more than they would expect. Without realizing it, I find my thoughts have wandered to someone from college, or a joke someone told me who I haven't spoken with in years (literally). And I smile and think of that person. It's an interesting phenomenon, at least to me.
So yes, I think this post will begin my "Friends" series.

I literally just two minutes ago sent Rach an email about what good friends you and her have been to me and how I think of you girls all the time! I'm just as terrible at the whole flaky thing, but think of you often! Good thing we both have blogs =) Love you!
Megan,
You are a terrific friend. We all have things we need to work on, but any deficiencies you may feel you have are more than made up for by how much fun you are to be around. Seriously, you are one of my favorite people to spend time with.
Love,
Kirstin
