I see the ads on TV, newspapers, online, and hear them on the radio. Dating services. Find your perfect match. Find your soul mate. I wonder how those ads would work at finding your BFF. I have a lot of friends and I have a few really good friends. My problem is that none of my really good friends live close by. Sometimes I think it would be nice to have a BFF that lived in Richmond, someone I could go to the movies with, someone I could go to the gym with (once Logan is in school), someone I could go to the park and walk with, someone I could laugh with, gossip with, and complain with.
I got to thinking about my "ad" that I would put out there on a "Find your new BFF" site. What would I say? How would I describe myself?
Married, mother of two, seeks BFF - Richmond Area. Loves to be goofy and make people laugh. Loves animals. Loves to collect box tops and soup labels. Loves to recycle. Enjoys walks around the neighborhood with the dogs. Cherry Coke Zero is the fave drink. Sonic rules! Has a good heart and an old soul. Loves Bluegrass-Gospel music. Can't stand the taste of lettuce. Doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, and only cusses when she has sustained a terrible injury. Enjoys going to church, loves God! Tends to neglect herself and always puts her children first! Can be serious when she feels passionate about something. Loves food. Doesn't like peaches and cream oatmeal. Bargain shopper. Insecure at times.
Looking at that, I wonder how many folks would apply to be my BFF - LOL. In summary, I sound like a 90 year old soup label collecting, recycling woman who likes to eat and drink. I wonder if that would get more attention than my long, descriptive "ad."
Woman who acts 90 years old. Loves to clip soup labels and recycle. Enjoys food and drinks.
I guess I'll just stick with the wonderful friends that I "do" have. Afterall, BFF's aren't that easy to find, and when you DO find one, you cherish them, despite the distance between you!!!


Uh, Hello Erin! Your Richmond BFF lives behind you! I'll go to the movies with ya!
