I hesitate at my age to say things like “best friend” because such rankings seem so trivial, so fifth-grade-yearbook, but tonight I was getting dressed and ready to go out and all I kept thinking, over and over again with adolescent glee, was MY BEST FRIEND IS HERE!!! Because, guys, my best friend is here! And we see each other so rarely, twice a year if we’re lucky, and every single time it’s as if we’ve spent every day together since last we saw each other. 

And tonight was perfect, and everything I’ve needed. 

So Emily, thank you. I love you. You are beautiful and perfect and make me laugh that sort of reckless, nothing-else-matters laughter, and you remind me of what is good. 

And things are good, they are really good.

Tomorrow we find R.Patz.
