Thank You For Being a Friend

I know it’s early for the usual “I give thanks for…” posts. And I don’t care. I’m in the mood to write it NOW. On the actual holiday, I’m working, anyway, and may work on “1000 Gifts”, but this is my formal, every year “shout out” to the people who have…. who are.. the ones who keep me alive, frankly.
So… here goes…
To “that boy”-Thank you for being my one true love. Thank you for being so damned supportive after my surgery. Thank you for being so supportive during the divorce. Thank you for believing in me, even when it has taken me a while to get back on track.
To Mom-Thank you for understanding that living in Miami is a form of death for me. Thank you for not making me feel like a failure this year as I’ve struggled to get my life together. Thank you for being the best mother I could’ve ever had.
To Amber-Thank you for constantly bolstering my ego and for kicking me in the ass when I need it!
To my sister Mischel-Thank you for immediately knowing that we WERE sisters. You know what I mean by that. And thanks again for making my LA dream come true last fall.
To Moni-Thank you for being so retarded for my little brother. He needs a good woman, and I’m glad you’re it. You made me feel so welcome and loved-I want only the best for you two.
To my entire Faster Pussycat family- Thank you for taking me in. I know I’m late to the party, but I feel as if you’ve been my whole life.
