Granted, not nearly as good as the ones that never died like "awesome" and "cool", not even as good as the ones I keep trying to bring back like "rad" but not as bad as the ones that deserved to die like "bodacious"...
Anyway, the reason for my being all jazzed?
I'm going to Toronto to see LOLA!!!! :)
I'm beyond excited, beyond thrilled, beyond freakin' jazzed! On September 13th, I will get to see my soul sister in Toronto!
I consider myself a very blessed chic when it comes to friends. I am lucky enough to have a few girl friends here locally that are awesome chics. Chics that I KNOW I will be friends with for the rest of my life, friends that I can be me with - the best friends any gal could ask for: my soul sisters. I have the phenomenal Cake Lady, Jiffinner & Fairy. These are the chics I call when I want to go shopping or have a bbq or just grab lunch. These girls know all there is to know about me. They've seen me at my best and my worst and I know I can be both ways or in between with them and it doesn't matter.
So that could be enough. Having them could really be all the friends a girl could ever need.
But I am so very lucky to have other soul sisters (and brothers) who are less local.
The first of whom is my half sister, Blue. When I met her seven years ago, I had no idea how much I had missed out on. Here was this amazing chic who happened to also be my sister! Then, two years ago, I got to meet Lola :) I met she and The Girl at a time in my life that was very hard. I had just lost Veronique and was grieving as much as any girl could. My heart was broken and empty and I didn't think it would ever be the same again. My heart is healed now, but I can still see the huge scar that is there. I met Lola a few months after I lost Veronique and it was like being reunited with a sister, much like meeting Blue had been. I knew, instantaneously that she and I would be friends forever. We have a bond. And even though I haven't met her yet, I know I have the same bond with Snow.
These ladies are my soul sisters. They are not accidental people in my life, they are supposed to be here. I am supposed to know them and I am so glad that I do.
I wish I could just get them all to move to Texas!
:)
Anyway, I am going to get to go see Lola next month! I've never even been to Canada so that is going to be exciting too!
Ok, I am super busy and at work, but I just wanted to share that with ya'll.
