My best friend from high school is having a baby as I type this.
This is the girl that I would pick up everyday in my pick up truck and drop off every night.
This is the girl that I would sneak out of the house to go to parties with.
This is the girl that used to dye my hair in her bathtub.
This is the girl that used to have dudes from the internet call her "just to talk".
This is the girl that got really drunk one night and told me she was a lesbian...only to take it back after she sobered up.
This is the girl that makes the worlds best breakfasts.
This is the girl that impresses me with her ability to down a dr.pepper in no time flat, then burp it out so loud that time will stop.
This is the girl that I used to cruise to the beach with while listening to remixes of sarah mcglaughin or sublime all the while smoking and singin along.
This is the girl that would make boys she didn't like sit "bitch" in my truck so that they had to deal with my stick shift and she didn't.
This is the girl that fell in love with a man in jail and almost married him.
This is the girl that says things so backwards sometimes that they make sense.

I am so excited to meet this baby just to tell him that I used to call his mom Shay-Rock, cause that was her gang name in our suburban gang.
