some things will always be as important as they have been

Girl time is important. Even when you're making it on your own in the big, scary world, and you just wrote your first student loan check, being with your girls and talking about boys and food and everything is the bright spot in your week. You even love your girls so much that you drive over the river to get lemon curd so you can finally make those lemon squares you've been wanting to attempt. And sometimes you're just talking to your roommate, who is so much like the girl you want to be at her age, and you have the same worries and you laugh at the same people. I'm sure it's the same for guys, they need guy time, too. But I can't even put into words how blissfully happy I am right now surrounded by my girlfriends, talking about every little thing and putting everything out on the coffee table. Much thanks to Charity, Susie, Hannah, and Emily for making my day fabulous.
