to delete, being anal and micromanaging!
Thanks Heidi!
Heidi......................?

really phenomenal sister... once she
finally picks up the phone.
makes for a unique and hilarious character!
Ahhhh, Heidi is one of the most honest friends
I have (aside from her daily white lies which I
always see through). She is thoughtful and
funny. We can talk and talk and talk forever
and seem to enjoy some of the smallest things
in life together. She has turned out to be my
political accomplice -- I know, 4 years ago I
would have never believed it!
Her honesty and insight into the insanities of
my husband have saved my marriage on a
number of occasions!
Here's to my freak of a friend, Heidi!!!!!
in under one minute, out loud, with staccato
emphasis in short bursts i feel that relaxing,
soothing calm that i get when hearing the
weekly reply from, "how was you week heidi?"
with awe and amazement. . . and a little bit
of jealousy. keep an eye on this girl.
she flies single engine planes scares
the bejesus out of me.
up. She is spontaneous, passionate
("Fight illiteracy at home people!)
charismatic (homecoming queen),and a
fabulous singer ("Christmas, the snow's
coming down"). I know only a few of her
shameful secrets (LOTP summer dating
debacle) and it just makes me adore
her more. She gives me
encouragement, books, comprehensive
fitness plans (yep, I still have it!), and
love. I pity the anyone who thinks they
can get the best of this little wonder,
because she will kick their ass and
leave them begging for more. My Idol.
for my relationship with Heidi is the Billy and Meg
friendship in the middle section of "When Harry
Met Sally." They become best friends by enjoying
New York City together, giving each other love
advice, and observing each other's total clinical
insanity. That's Heidi and me. Note that this
excludes the part where Harry and Sally fall in
love at the end. A much more likely ending for
Heidi and me will be a platonic marriage in our
late fifties, living separately but enjoying the tax
benefits.
