best.message.ever.
over christmas break i ended up spending three days at my best friend's house. she's the coolest person on earth, as well as entirely overworked by running her own business, a husband, and two kids. she always jokes that she needs a wife to help her get shit done.
so i went to their house for the christmas eve open house and then ended up staying until the day after christmas. at the open house it's become more chill over the years. people dropping in and out, having a cocktail or two and then going somewhere else. i didn't think i drank too much but i was a little hung the next morning. so i had the pleasure of drinking spicy tomato beers all christmas day watching her kids open presents. it was mellow (except for the screaming).
she tells me that she's putting together a volleyball team to play at the local rec dept. and asks if i'm interested. HELL YEAH! i know i'll be busy retaking the gawwwwwwwdamn stats class again but i figured i'll be driving home the nights they play and i practically pass right by there so i was stoked.
we had our first practice the sunday before the first game and i figured i should go to make sure i even know what the HELL i was doing after not playing for so long. it was awesome! a little warm-up and i could totally do my rocket-looks-like-it'll-hit-the-backwall-but-drops-2-inches-too-far-in-front-of-you serve. so we practice and then my bf and i stand outside talking logistics a bit and then we leave. i must have had the radio turned way up (shocking!) because i didn't hear my cell ring. and when i got home i got the following message in the most awesome happy/enthusiastic voice of my best friend:
"hey, i know i just left you at the school but i just wanted to tell you how happy i am you're coming out to play volleyball with us! i just love you so much and i'm so happy i get to see you while you're in school! i know you get so busy and the gas costs you a bunch but i swear i just can't get this big smile off my face from seeing you today and from knowing i'll be seeing you so much more than i usually do once you're in school and i just wanted to call and tell you that and that i'm STILL smiling so huge! LOVE YA! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU AND PLAY VBALL!!!"
*sigh* too bad att doesn't let you save voice mail longer than 14 days cuz that's something i really want for the archives. it just makes me smile and feel all warm and loved and special by someone that means so much to me.
