Canadians & Kalamazooians (is that even a word)


I don't understand why I am saying goodbye when goodbyes are for suckers. i never want to say goodbye, but here I am, forced upon my lips like there is no tomorrow.
Nada the Canadian and Katie from Kalamazoo are laughing obnoxiously in the bathroom/poo shed about something my ears can't pick up, but I get the feeling, that I am going to miss that sound.
Once, I excitedly came home from work to see Nada, who had been away for the weekend in Tampa. I ran into her room to find her fast asleep, in a rude moment, I jumped on her screaming "I'm so glad you're home" thinking that it was a lovely way to let her know how much i missed her, instead I got "WHAT THE F***? WHO THE F***!!!? S****!! F***..." I don't know who was more freaked out! I have now decided to never wake her ever again, even if the house is on fire.
Nada is honest, reliable, forgiving, loving, caring, gracious, understanding, a listener, and an all round good friend.
I love that we share a love for thrift shops and every meal is veggies with cheese. I love her quirks and obsession with trail mix.
I like that she has the ability to just act completely ridiculous and do such stupid fun things.
I love that she is so alive and active, and getting to know her and watch her grow even more since she has been here has been a privilege.
She is someone that I am truly lucky to have as a friend. So beautiful inside and out.

I hate that I just dropped her at the airport and I may never know when I will see her again.

She is one of my best friends that I will hold so close to my heart.
I will miss her.

Nada, I absolutely love you and will miss you!
