*My Girlies*

*Cortney*-Cousin!!! This is my girlie...we have been through *IT ALL* together. Seriously, we lived next door to each other all of our lives, until I moved when I was in 6th grade...and then she moved like 3 years later. But it was okay...we just tied up the phone lines a lot. :) Dude, remember when we were little and before my birthday we would play all night long and be soooo sad because we weren't going to be the same age any more? We were dorks. Cort you're so great and you are and always have been one of my closest friends. You know pretty much everything about me. You listen to me talk constantly and give me advice. LOL, I completely corrupted you and made you into a bad girl--but that's okay because really you're a good girl, doin bad things like me, right? :) Hehe....I trained you well girlie!!! And we do share the guys, don't we? *We have such good taste!!* :) I miss you a lot cuz and I'm sorry if I hurt you when I left...I really didn't mean it...and I love you tons and I'll see you soon--we can go dancing and pick up guys...though we'll probably choose the same one to hit on. It's okay though Teeny! :) Dude, and now Cort's part of "the group"! LOL and making her way through the guys in "the group"...I taught you well! It's alright though! Hehe we have a lot of fun though...esp. at Mad Jack's with my boyfriend Bobby! :) It's a good thing you approve of Joe too....after all, you're next in line, it's how it works, ya know! Love you honey and I'll never forget about you, I promise. Thanks for always listening.

*Niki*- Nik is my girlie. She was Chelsea's other best friend and she and I have went through a lot in this past year. I don't know what I would have done without her. Now that I live in Indiana, we're together quite a bit. If I'm not with Niki, she'll know where I'm at. She and I have had many fun times...ranging from our rock incident at Shawn's, to Monday's with Bergman. (Even though now they're Saturday's, right Nik?) and we can't forget our mall excursions where we go a little crazy. Oh god...and we can't forget that night at Mitch's (dead) grandparents. Highlights include me peeing in a church parking lot, riding on the 60 year old bicycle together with the banana seat, "Don't Fret, Vote for Bret!", "I would have been like 'drip-dry bitch", me line dancing, "Yee-haw and Shit!", Dan Black calling, "You know why we're friends? Our best friend died" and then finally peeing in the backyard b/c there was no where else to go...and then getting home at 5 am that morning...but that's okay, we slept till like 2. :) Oh...and we don't talk alike either. (In unison: "I would be like Fuck you!!" Look at each other, laugh and say in unison: "Seriously!") Niki has given me a lot of advice, some of which I take, some of which I don't...but that's okay. One piece of advice that she's drilled into me--"Our princess asses don't sit on anything but Harley's" :) Maybe one day the sound will get to me Nik! :) Seriously though, Nik looks out for me and I look out for her (and make sure we're not gonna be like those wives!) I love you and miss you Nik. :)

*Tia*- Tia gets to be red because it matches her slut red car (SRC) that I named oh so long ago. Tia and I have been through a lot as well...and we've known each other for what seems like forever (Guy at the mall: "You guys talk alike...been friends for a while?" LOL) Seriously though, Tia and I have probably known each other for 7 years and we've gotten into exactly one major fight (that did last like 6 months of not speaking to each other, but still!) Anyway, Tia and I have had sooo many fun times...oh god...there's the night at Mary Pat's (Me: "We were only making out for like a half an hour" Tia & Sheri: "Try like 4"), Walgreens runs to make pictures and to take pictures with our "water bottles", coffee runs whenever we felt like it, water fights and other fun times at day camp last summer (and walking out with Kel and Katie J), random shopping excursions, car picnics, dumb movies (Drop Dead Gorgeous), trying to make Jiffy Pop (and burning it), random road trips to "Ashland" and "Mount Union" (Surrounded by trees? It must be camoflage!! Deterioration=life, Sheri, who brings damn books on road trips?!?), trips to the beach to watch the sunset, the nots that I put on your car one day when you left me the keys during camp, Dicks Last Resort and MICHAEL LUCAS (and when he threw Chelsea's lighter in the river), dancing at the Ohio Games, our drinks (vanilla/mocha lattes, peach/rasberry snapple, diet coke/cherry coke), me driving the SRC, job hunting for you, CEDAR POINT=grounded for three months, lol...remember that?, our random trips to the park which meant "i need a cigarette", polluting 'lake erie' aka Independence Park, any of the times with Sheri when I got shotgun (always), well...all of the times I got shot gun because I was the co-owner of the slut and I was in it as much as you, you introducing me to punk rock and me liking it...me introducing you to country and you likeing it...concerts and when you got kisses on your birthday or when we were on the guest list, teeny boppers with sparkly pink belts (Cortney!) (DAMN!! I forgot my mini backpack, my tight pink pants, my sports bra with airbrush...DAMN! LOL), you and Ashley's road trips to come and see me--car accidents, Hacienda, Mall Runs (with matching bracelets and Shawn's sparkly cowboy hat), Freeze Runs, and ending the night at my house with a case of smirnoff (or ending the nite at Shawn's dancing...and no pool parties :(, No smoking in Fort Wayne unless you're 21...even though you have to be 18 to buy cigarettes=life! Ohhh...and you can't forget the Grande Meal from Taco Bell--you don't finish you're 5, you're not getting drunk with us!! :) And you always have to say "DAMMIT" when you throw things out of the car window, remember that! Oh--HELLO TUR-TLE!! :) Seriously though...Life is good! There are sooo many more fun times too though....TECH SUPPORT!!! And we can't forget our movie nights--Mini Tribals, Likey Leakey? And FLIP CUP at the 10 Day Party at Adams!!! :) I love you girlie, you're one of my best friends and you completely understand me. And hey, what about Peaches and Cream?!? Where the Party at? And of course, you remind me!

*Ashley*-Ash is one of my Quaker Steak and Lube Girlies--An original!! I met her in February when our restaurant first opened and since then we've been really good friends....When you get me, Ashley and Tracy together, you get trouble. It wasn't that often that you didn't find the three of us together outside of work...or in work you'd find us all dressed alike--down to our shoes from Target and matching stickers on our name tags...and talking the same too. "You'll have that", "Honey", "OH MY GOD". I'll never forget Ed and his Anne Frank story he told us...or the "Jesus is the Lord? I thought he was a bus driver in Cincinatti!!" LOLOL. Dude and we cannot forget dancing together in the lobby, decorating for holidays, and our ROAD TRIP to Sharon when we kidnapped Tracy from school, made her call in sick to work just to have Chris show up in Sharon and get caught! Ashley and I spend a lot of our time together shopping...and when Ash shops, she shops. OMG. I had the best time with Ash...one day we were online talking and I was having a bad day and so was she...so we called up Ryan and decided to leave the next day for Myrtle Beach. It was fucking awesome--except for the part where Ash got pulled over, I had to say goodbye to Shawn and she almost couldn't go...but we got past that all and 24 hours later, we were on our way to Myrtle Beach with Ryan, Danny and Wes. We had the best time--shopping and buying 50 dollar lavander capris, de-virginizing Ash and taking her clubbing (at the Freaky Tiki!), lunch everyday at Peaches, getting her hair braided, getting her tongue pierced (while using my ID :), meeting Thomas and Dale on the beach and swimming with them in the ocean and the pool, going out to dinner with them, and then going back to their hotel and getting drunk on the beach ("Life is Good", handstands and cartwheels--and you dropping me, jellyfish, and MASSIVE SAND FIGHTS)...and then there was my psycho obsessive trip to Wilmington and all the signs we saw on the way. And we can't forget me teaching you how to smoke. It was one of the best weeks in my life and I will never forget it--thank you so much honey! Love you much! :) Oh, and this picture of her and her dead dog Munchy that she gives me bad dreams about...lol :)

*Tracy*-Tracy Q is one of the craziest people I know and one of the most fun to be around. I started hanging out with her at work too...and I de-virginized her of clubs too!!! Remember Tracy--"WE'RE GOING OUT!" And then she took me to get my belly button pierced--present!! :) It hurt a little bit but your facial expression was far more scary than the piercing itself. LOL. And then we met Ryan, Wes and Gino at the mall and got a little crazy. Tracy and I shopped a lot together too--and tanned like everyday. And we can't forget the time we shopped on the clock (I bought my Hello Kitty phone...and my shoes). Hey Tracy--"Don't Be a Bitch" LOL. That was such a work phrase...but it always made us not fight anymore. I haven't talked to Tracy much...but I did go to her grad. party where we had much fun--and the next morning--"Aunt Jemima, Mrs. Butterworth--what happened to Aunt Lindsay?!?" OMG, me and Ash were ROLLING on the ground. And we can't forget Ash's grad party either--skinny dipping? LOL. I love you honey--you're my tanning buddy! And we can't forget getting lost and Chelsea in the backseat! LOL.

*Kelli*-Kelli Lynn is my girlie! Kel and I met at day camp last summer where we were both "yellow" counselors--and the only cool counselors in the group, lol. After our last day of work, when we went out with Jason, shopped and then hung out at Randy's, Kel and I started talking more. Then we met up with Ryan (later to be known as Ryan My Bitch) and got drunk and that was the beginning of our inseperable friendship. When school started Kel and Ryan would FORCE me to skip mass communications (well more like say "Hey Nicole, we're going to McDonald's"...and you don't have to twist my arm for food) and hang out. We'd usually go shopping or one time, after me and Ryan begged Kel, we went to Toys R Us and played for an hour. It was Kelli who intruduced me to the Flats and the beach club...we went there a lot this year. God, there were so many fun times with Kel...when we started working together at Outback, we were basically together 24/7. Memeber what we did to Adrienne, Kel? OMG, me, you and Erin laughed for like 20 minutes. And then there were the many times I ran away from home and you housed me, us shopping for slut clothes with Ashley, going to the Christmas Party at the Velvet dog and getting sooo drunk before and during...and my Dave Fekete incident... Hey Kel--This is B.A.D.--signed Nicole Lorince. That was a funny nite too. Remember Dan, Hot Sam and Fuck Me Now Jason (MANY POINTS for him). "Banging on the bathroom floor!" New Years Eve was a blast too--and so was our trip to Kent for your birthday--but walking sucks. And we can't forget Mardi Gras--WOW, I have never seen you that drunk! Kel, it was all you that got my tolerence up!! :) I don't know what I would have done without you this past year either, Kel. You and I always had so much fun and hey--I even named your dog! Aww Riley! :) Seriously though, Kel...I'm back and we're having fun! OU--BOXER CHECK!!! "I'm gonna get some" "Okay, only if I can too!" OU for Halloween when you "died"...it's okay though, I have the bottle caps to prove it! Audra: We're playing drunk driver Kelli: Okay, I have shotgun. LOL....and we cannot forget this one: Audra-Did you hear we lost Roberto Alomar? Kelli: Did he die? LOL come on now Kel...those were funny. And I know I can smoke in your house b/c "only people who live there can"....LOL...remember your surprise for me? GUSHERS!!! hehe....And I know I have to call you whenever I leave my house to inform you of my whereabouts! :) I love you girlie, you're one of my BEST friends...and we can't forget...CANCUN!!!!!! In April!!!! It's gonna be just like Cocktail..I promise! Love you honey!
