HOW DID YOU GET THE SLIP ON ME IN MY OWN MEME?!?!?!?!?!?
oKAY WHATEVER. I love you, I like you, thank you for being my friend, my chosen sister, and feeding me, even when you don't feel like feeding me. Sometimes that means going to chicken fingers, sometimes that means making me eat vegetables, but never mushrooms, except for those few times. Thank you for bringing me into your home.
You were so kind and welcoming to this stranger who pretty much invited herself to your house to watch the Parks Finale, and you continue to be kind and welcoming even though you now know how insane I am (because like Janice from Accounting, you don't give a fuuuuuck). I will never forget our 4 hour brunch, booze, and bagel puree extravaganza, and I hope we have many, many more of those in the future. Narwhals 4 Life. <3
Emily of Emily, I'm so grateful you (and your dog and your Bride) are in my life. From weird spellings of surnames to your crazy relatives (or, well, specifically the one) to the heyday of Harry Potter fandom, we always have something hilarious and/or meaningful to talk about, and I'm so glad whenever whichever device/social media channel/whatever lights up with a notification from you, because I know I'll have a smile on my face in a couple of minutes.
Also: thank you for not smashing my phone before I finally capitulated to Archer. My life is better now, and I can still text.
When I have feelings, I'm relieved that I have learned the appropriate uses of capslock thanks to you, though this is a debt I can never repay.
When I get sad, I just remember how you almost got into fisticuffs with a Redcoat, and it brings me joy.
And when I see something in a store window with an American flag pattern on it, I consider getting it for you, and then remember that you probably already own the thing.
You are wise beyond your years and I truly enjoy your all caps zeal for life, pizza, and America. In fact, sometimes I have to stop myself from spelling America with a B in non Amberica situations (I know, they exist! It's weird). I hope we can sports again together before you head back to the Lone Star State and the next great chapter in your life. You are a delight. <3
You are an endless source of joy, appreciation of Scots, and reasons to visit Detroit. I live in daily awe of your punning skills, commitment to the Motherland, and photography prowess. In short, you're the best version of you, and I can't believe it took so long for you to be in my life.
HALES what else can I say. You make me laugh, you're the podcast queen, and you've handled the shit out of everything this insane year has thrown your way. I know you don't feel like you're handling it some days, but you're a brave, no BS badass and I love that about you. Come to Detroit so I can cart you around and we can drink whiskey together.
You are so much fun to follow. Your unbridled joy in the things you love is contagious, and your relentless determination to find and create for yourself those things that make you happy is deeply admirable. You also have an uncanny ability to take near-identical selfies of your lovely facial parts that I am in awe of, because HOW?
Also, your dog is adorable and insane dog, and that's awesome, too.
YOU are an amazing fandom enabler, pop-culture/movie/TV/Hamilton evangelist, person, and spy-in-arms. I love reading or listening to what you have to say about pretty much anything, because you're so incredibly genuine and enthusiastic about the things that you love and enjoy. You were my gateway to Outlander and for that I will always be eternally grateful. In short, never change. You are a gem and I'm so happy you exist.
What an all-around awesome person you are. I appreciate that I can go to you for both fandom-related squealing and legit life advice. I appreciate you so much!
I have to echo Jules and say THANK YOU for being a gateway to Outlander. You are a delight and I love hearing about what you're into. You're fandom-ness is an inspiration. Also you've seen Hamilton and I love/hate you for that. You're a fantastic secret spy and I like that. Thank you for being the first person to participate in dress like haley day.

Stay practically perfect in every way, dearest.

I also can't believe it took so long for us to be in each other's lives, but I'm so glad we're making up for lost time. <3
