Thank you.
The closest would be Alana of course, since I've known her the longest of the people here (almost 3.5 years) and she and I have hung out on quite a few occasions. Not to mention the fact that we tease each other on a regular basis with comments in our sigs here, in cards, and so forth. Really great person and what I have said is only the tip of the iceberg.
Then come friends like Jake, Keith, miki, and SK - all special to me for various reasons, including mutual likes/dislikes, sound advice sharing/giving, and so forth. Sometimes, one just needs a laugh as well as a cry
Then there are multitude of others here whose presence I enjoy. So much I've learned by interacting with them. Some good, some bad, but all part of what it means to be a person engaging in friendships. Hopefully I've been a good friend to these people, because I'd hate to think I hadn't been.
