I want to call in sick.

Today is a busy, life altering day for a couple of my friends. One, I met on a plane going to San Diego when I was 12. We wrote each other ever week for many years, lost track of each other in college, and through the wonders of myspace found each other again a couple years ago! She was my best friend who lived in Arizona! There wasn't anything that we couldn't tell each other, and boy did we have a lot to say! Two, we went to Middle School and High School with each other. She is the reason that I had the guts to "stalk" my husband until he noticed me! She ate lunch with me everyday, went to most High School dances with each other (and our dates). Let me talk about "my dream boy", and cry about him when I needed to. I didn't know it at the time, but if it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have the husband I have, or the two fantastic boys that I have. About our kids. One, is having her third baby today in Arizona! I have been awake for 1 hour, and I have checked her myspace page twice now waiting for an update. I don't know why. It's not like she's going to update her profile between contractions, but I am just so excited for her and her family to be bringing in a new little Parker into this world! Yes, his name is Parker too! When I told Parker this, his response was: "Now there are TWO Parker's!" Two, is waiting anxiously by the phone for her adoption agency to call. Today is the court date in Ethiopia to see if they get to bring there little girl home. It's been over a year, and we are all ready for little girl to be in her family's loving arms. I have also checked her blog twice now to see if she has written anything. Checked my email to see if I have gotten the mass email letting us know all is well! We all want it to be that much closer to being complete! I don't want to go to work today. I would much rather get a cup of coffee, and sit on my bed with my laptop checking myspace, my email, and blogger.... I am thinking of you ladies today! And I will try to sneak away at work, call Matt, and have him get online for me!
