basically jess

jess and jess. may 1, 2009.

bad picture but hey, its us :)

its been quite a long time since ive hungout one-on-one with jess and yet every time we manage to find a few hours to get together, i have a complete blast! theres just something about her that makes me act four billion years younger than i am. and its not completely a bad thing.. right?! i mean, we all need time to goof off and have fun with friends. and if you met jess- well i guarantee you'd be acting goofy too :)

i met jess at work. the very first shift we ever worked together, we landed on front counter. both of us. same till. it was so fun! then eventually it came out that she use to go to ccs (the "other" christian school" and went to the lethbridge nrc. so we had our religion in common too. that just made it better.

after brad and i broke up, jess started scheming. her intentions were to hook me up with mark, her boyfriends brother. it didnt work. mark was "just way too quiet for me and.. hey what about mark's friend? the guy with the curly hair? he seems cool!!" and so she started her match making all over again. quite obviously her skills work because, well here i am. dating dan. her second cousin (or so) and one of her good friends.

so anyways.. jess is dating bill. theyve been dating approximately six months longer than dan and i. so we both have our separate lives with our guys and occasionally the four of us get together to hangout and watch some movies and have some good "old fashioned" fun.

but today i gotta go shopping and watch a movie with her. all by myself! it was great. and i realized just how lucky i am to have such a great friend. to have such great friends in general. and so, i wanna leave you with this:

friends are special

dont give up your friends for a guy or for anything else

cherish them

love them

spend time with them

and remember how lucky you are to have them!
