erikaDo you know what I like about my ... erm... remaining friends?
Actually, when I write it out, "my remaining friends" sounds quite pathetic. I've only lost two! (Well, okay, I've only lost two friends RECENTLY.) So what should I say instead...?
My steadfast companions? [A bit medieval.]
The idiots who've kept talking to me, possibly due to some unfathomable number of times that they were dropped on their heads in childhood? [Somewhat insulting.]
Compassionate people who believe that, all evidence to the contrary, there is in fact a better part of my nature? [...maybe?]
Erm, so pick whichever description you prefer, I guess.
But anyway! Everyone who's stuck with me is so nonjudgmental, and yet they all have this gentle quality of being able to metaphorically kick my ass if necessary.
I really appreciate that in a person.
(My loyal compatriots? My beloved buddies-with-bite? My intimate yet stubborn cronies? My ardent cohort? This is a puzzle.)
