Her Birthday Wish
It is the birthday wish of my blogging friend Lara for all of her readers to celebrate her birthday by giving a gift to someone else and then describe it on the blog. Pretty neat idea, right?
Yesterday I treated a buddy to dinner. Today I helped another move some of his belongings into storage. But those were fairly spontaneous and spur of the moment. I figured I could be even more intentional with this birthday present...
So my gift to Lara today is a virtual one. It is an online ode to another dear friend who just happens to be celebrating her birthday today.
This is a friend whom I've known since my freshman year in college; who led me blind-folded into a fountain on my own birthday six years ago; who has sung some of the best solos in our a cappella group; who is one of the best partners I've danced with; who has been a great source of joy and irreverent fun whenever we've hung out; who is my horror movie-watching partner in crime (replete with snarky comments and rapier wit). This is my friend who goes by the name Kari.
Psst, Kari, you're supposed to blow the candle out, not barf on it.
awww, your friend sounds really cool! i'm not sure you deserve someone that awesome, bry. ;)
