Odd friendships are the best

Tomorrow is friend Anthony's birthday. He and I have been friends for about 7-ish years. We also have a 14-year gap between us... and it doesn't matter. Somehow, through the gap, through growing up very differently, through being from very different backgrounds and having faced completely different challenges in life, we get along. I can't say I know exactly how our friendship was formed, since there was no reason why we should ever have spoken to each other. We do both remember the first time we spoke, though, which was in the photo lab, where we both sat quietly and edited. The story goes that he thought I was a lesbian; that is, until I spoke! Haha! I guess we see what we recognize in ourselves. Sorry, buddy, still not a lesbian. Anyway, before I knew it, he was at my house and we were cooking up a storm. This became a regular occurrence, and we lovingly called (and still do) my kitchen: The Susan B. Anthony Cafe. Through many recipes and tales of failed relationships, through Emely (nightmare tenant I had to evict - don't ask), through recipes that sent him to the bathroom (no more curry for you!), through photographing his new niece and watching him beam with pride as a new uncle, this young man has been a strange but welcome blessing in my life. 

My birthday wish you for, dear friend: continue to grow, push yourself, be yourself, and remember that you can always rely on me... but if you do something stupid, I'll kill you. Love ya! 

Warmly,
Susan
