Goodbye dinner tonight with Brit and Jason: add "guilt over abandoning pregnant best friend" to the list. I feel like the official "goodbye" bit was a bit stilted, but I've found that I cry much less when I make the painful parts quick! It's purely selfish in motivation, and I'm sure this discovery will come back to bite me in a BIG way, sometime in the near future.
So...here's a better goodbye. Thanks for dinner, you kids: even though we don't get to see each other as often as we should, I will truly miss both of you and I hope, Brit, that you will continue to allow me to call you Best Friend, even from a zillion miles away. Thank you for coming out to meet us for dinner on such a crummy evening, and for being my friend for so long. We'll see you in July.
Yes, you may continue to call me Best Friend since I'm planning on continuing to call you the same. I'll miss you like crazy but now I have multiple reasons to look forward to July.
