My Best Friend

It may surprise some of you to see me here. Some of you I know because you are family, some are friends, some are people I have never met but know about you when my wife says wonderful things about you. I am the husband of the CA Girl, Lourie. She is the blogger, I am not so much, but I am the geek of the family.

But that is just a digression, I am here to talk about my best friend. I met my best friend almost 20 years ago. I wouldn't say it was immediate friendship since I asked her to dance and she told me no. It took some, but we finally danced together and then another time and then another time and eventually we parted ways for a WHOLE DAY! We had our first date that following Tuesday and haven't been apart since. Does that count as best friends? Probably not, but the following does...

Lourie is my confidante, no matter the topic, big or small, she listens, hears, and helps me with my MANY problems. She is my shoulder to cry on. She is my reason to be. She is the face I long to see in the morning and the one I want to see before I close my eyes at night.

I know some of those things are very cliche but fit her to perfection. My best friend is my wife. Love Ya, my dear.

Okay, you can begin the EEEWWWs and AAHHHHs.
