THIS heifer right here. You've read the stories. You know just by looking at her that any moral defects I have as an adult are all her fault. This is Mandi. This is "the bestie". I found that bottom picture there, and had to share it. That's from when we first met and were working together at McDonald's back in 2002. The second one was last Christmas, when she decided we both needed duck lips for a selfie. Yes, we're grown women in our mid-thirties who still enjoy a good selfie session, and please believe, the majority of them look like those up there.
There are way too many stories to go along with these selfies, as well as the 15 years of friendship between the two of us. I just wanted to share the pics. But should you ever be lucky enough to cross paths with us, be warned. We have no filter, no act-right, and not a single ounce of shame. You'll never find another pair of crazy gals like us though! We're quirkier than your average pair.
1) If either of us is crying, DO NOT--I repeat--DO NOT HUG THE CRYING PERSON!!! Sure, it's a kind gesture, but it makes the emotional issue that much worse.
2) Sugar coating isn't going to happen where clothing is concerned. Example: If you look bad in something you're trying on, you'll likely get something along the lines of "That looks stupid. Take it off."
3) We are happily boring. Our days at the bars and clubs are long gone. We tend to spend our free time in pajamas, vegging out on our favorite shows, browsing Pinterest, or just plain old laying around. We enjoy the occasional glass of moscato, and the frequent trip to Taco Bell.
4) Neither of us do bugs. At all. Don't think for one second that we're above calling someone to come over and handle a particularly large spider.
5) We frequently talk in movie quotes and song lyrics. And yes, we are thoroughly amused with ourselves.
I know it's a random post, but I'm pretty proud of my bestie. If God ever intended for me to have a sister, she must've been it. I'm pretty sure he knew better than to give both of us to one parent though. I don't think anyone would be equipped to handle that.
Love you, Hooker!!!!
