Again, sorry for sucking and absentmindedly responding to your invite and not wishing you an actual happy birthday even though I've been looking forward to this day for weeks to come! So.... *drumroll please*
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FIONAFAVORITE!!!
There are no words to describe how much I love you, but let me try. (Please excuse me if I sound like I'm rambling because I haven't written in a while and my handle of the English language is unfortunately deteriorating.) I've loved your quirky sense of style and your bubble personality from the day I met you. I mean, that's pretty much how we met. You introduced yourself and I have been thankful ever since. It's funny, but you really are like a (FLED) sister to me, in more ways than one. I'm glad that you are one of the few people on this planet Earth that I don't need to keep up with every week or every two weeks or even every month, but when we reconnect, it's still so nice and happy and comfortable. No, we don't pick up where we left off, because let's be real, who can remember what they were talking about a couple of months ago? But we understand that we're both ever evolving strong, independent women that are always there for each other. (At least, I feel that way. I hope you feel the same. And if you don't, let me know how I can do better because you are worth every effort to keep up with and our relationship is one I want to maintain until we are old af and don't want to do anything else but Zumba and boba and cuddle in your bed.) Oddly enough, your life and your stories and experiences are always relevant to me too. You're like a classic book (and that's a compliment of the highest order). I could read you over and over again and never be tired of you and you will always be relevant regardless of where I am in my life. What can I say, I only have the best to say about my walking/talking diary and holy deity. You inspire me. I look up to you so much, hon (figuratively, 'cause I mean, let's be real lol), and I want you to know that I will always support you in your endeavors 'cause I believe in you so much. I know you sometimes struggle and things haven't been easy recently, but things will look up. I believe good things happen to good people and if life isn't fair to you, I'll do my best to make it more fair for you. How else can I repay you for scouring all of H&M for hours on end to find something for me so that I could use my coupon on a school day just to end up not buying anything? Oh, the lengths you'll go for meee. <3 Anyway, the short and sweet of it is: I love you and I hope my love isn't so overbearing for you ('cause now that I'm rereading this, it could be misconstrued as a proposal, but haters gonna hate) and I hope you have the absolutely best because you deserve nothing but the best.
