Wanna Surprise Me? February 6, 2009

Posted by Emily in : Friends, Medical School, Texas, Utah , 2comments

A few days ago, my friend Ang dropped in for a surprise visit.  Why was it a surprise you ask? Because she lives in DC and flew out on short notice to see me to see her family.  I LOVE her to pieces.  When I was living in Texas and she was living in Utah, I would fly her to Texas to work in my bridal store on key weekends.

She kicks butt as a saleswoman.  She could sell a straight man a wedding dress.  And he would buy it and feel good about it.  Like he needed it.  She made a lot of money for my store.  But, that’s not why I LOVE her.

We bonded while working crazy hours, selling dresses to crazy bridezillas.

Her husband started dental school (in DC)  the same time my husband started medical school.

We bonded again over our crazy lives.

Now, her husband will graduate in May, and my husband has like 23 more years to go before he makes an income as a doctor.

I am like 80% happy for her and 20% jealous.

But, I LOVE her to pieces, so how could I really be jealous?

She carved time out of her four day trip to see me and I loved it. She brought her baby who is just eight weeks old with her.

I got lost in his blue, blue eyes.

He was ADORABLE.

I wanted to eat him up.

Kiss his face off.

Keep him for my very own.

She has two other kids, would she really miss this little one? :)
