J20: Options

Student suggested options are:
1. Who is your best friend and why?
2. What are your plans for the weekend?
3. Diary of a soldier.

I think I'll tell you about a variety of my friends since their individual qualities make them "best" at something.

-My best life friend is my husband. We have known each other since we were kids and have been together for close to nine years. Wow...I really didn't realize it had been that long until I wrote it. There are a lot of differences in our personalities, but somehow we've managed to make it this long without too many problems.
-My best therapist friend is Matt W. Even though it seems like many of our conversations are circular and I rarely follow his advice, on the rare occasions we see each other nowadays he still talks to me.
-I can't pick a best work friend. Here are some of them: Mary Anne is awesome - she cracks me up and keeps me realistic. Shirky takes care of me - and that's awesome. Huck is my entertainer - he can make any day better with his goofiness. Jeremy was great as a student teacher, and is now great as a colleague. Coffee with him is always an intellectual exercise. I'm not going to say I love all the other teachers I work with (I do, at least, like them all), but I'm going to truncate this list since I think I'm holding you up...
