There are four people I consider to be my best friends, and I call them this because they are the four closest friends I have and there is no doubt in my mind that they will remain that way for the rest of my life.
The first three are my girlfriends from where I grew up: Funnel & Robbie, whom I've known for 10 years, and Nads whom I met a year later than the others. The backward, messed up town we grew up in is a badge of courage we all wear and they have been more like sisters to me than my actual sisters were for most of my life. The fourth is ubertuber, whom I've known for a little over 2 years. I love that guy most of all because from the moment we were first closely associated, he told me that I had the power to think for myself and make things happen... and he kept telling me until I believed him and didn't need him to tell me anymore.
