I just want everyone to know that I miss my friend John.
I miss smudging his glasses, pulling his eye lashes, and blowing in his
nose. I miss doing impressions of Olympic gymnasts and letting him
"create" different looks with my hair. I miss making up words, rocking
Bobby Love's with our karaoke classics, and teaching him how to do
cartwheels in the park by Lake Michigan. I especially miss linking arms
with him when we walk since Eric will not have it.
During my senior year at Dickinson, my friend Pud (nickname) was obsessed
with "Survivor." So we would all pile in his little RA dorm room
and watch it on Thursday nights. One of the rewards for a challenge was
the opportunity to talk to a loved one online for a few minutes. Well,
this one guy decided to propose to his girlfriend over the instant
message and it was SOOOO CHEESY. The guy kept calling his girlfriend
Peas and she kept calling him Carrots. John and I were making fun of it
and Pud was getting mad. We kept calling each other Peas and Carrots
and fawning all over each other. Well, ever since then we have been
Peas & Carrots!
So this is for you, Peas, and your tribute to me on your Friendster profile. Thanks for the picture...I love you!
