LJ Idol - Week 4 - What does narcissism have to do with me?

[malruniel11]

"No.  I want to be alone.  Solitude in the middle of Wal-mart--it's like the PERFECT thing."

Sitting on my couch in our dorm room, and looking her straight in the eyes, I deadpanned my response to Bekah's request to join me on my expedition to the Wal-mart two towns over.  I couldn't keep my serious expression for long, and we both cracked up,

Now multiply that by about a million and three and you're getting close to the level of awesome that was our year together.
haha! so cute!

you guys sound like you have an awesome relationship ^_^

[malruniel11]

^_^ Thanks!

We really do, and she is one of the best things that ever happened to me.

Aww..that is so sweet! I LOVE your quotes. I literally LOL. I'm so glad you have a friend like this.

I hope you do get to see each other often. Good friends are not easy to find (in my experience.)

Thanks for sharing such happy memories:)

[malruniel11]

Thank you! I laugh out loud loudly whenever I read over our quotes, and I know the context they were in! I can only imagine what they are like out of context, other than hilarious!

Good friends are hard to find, but I have been blessed with some of the most amazingly wonderful friends. We may be scattered throughout the world, but the love and care and support we give each other, even from afar, makes the longing for each other and the times we get to spend together that much sweeter.

I hope you have or find your own Bekah. Life is so much better when you have one. ^_^

[similiesslip]

I don't "have a Bekah." I'm really hoping to find one, hopefully, someday but sometimes I wonder if those kind of friendships can be formed when one is old and full of responsibilities like me. Friendships often bond best when you can spend large amounts of time together, focusing on enjoying the friendship and with my kids etc..

I hope so though. I don't want to give up the thought that someday I'll..it will click with someone. Somehow.

Like I said, stories like yours..it's hopeful. There are good people out there right?

Thanks again for sharing:)

[malruniel11]

Well, I hope you do find your "Bekah." He or she will change your life for the better by far. Good friends always do. There are some amazing people out there, and you never know where you'll meet them! I'm over blessed with an abundance. I have my Bekah, my Wendi-Lady, my Amethyst, my Amy, my Mark, etc.

(= Love Garfield. Nice writing

[malruniel11]

Garfield is awesome. Probably my favorite one shot of his is him standing in front of the open fridge with a plate of chocolate cake and it says, "Looks like a salad to me!"

Thank you! ^_^

[basric]

There's one of him hanging on the screen door I Love.

[noodledays]

hahaha, your unabashed glorying in the two of you and your experience together was quite fun to see. :D

[malruniel11]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! We do just revel in each other, so this wasn't hard to put together at all. ^_^

[mstrobel]

Awww, this was so much FUN! I could read a whole book about the two of you XD which is kind of weird and stalkerish, but certainly pales in comparison on the o.O scale to thong borrowing ;)

[malruniel11]

Ouch!Ouch!Ouch! I just hurt myself laughing so hard at the concept of "the o.O scale" and where thong borrowing might be on said scale!! Oh dear Lord...

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I could go on and on and on about me and Bekah (I cut out about 1K words to make it as "short" as it currently is). There are very few things I value as much as friendship, and her friendship is pretty high on that totem pole. And it's mutual, which is why we call ourselves "US".

*grins* I would honestly gladly read more if the opportunity ever arises for it to be written!
