If you haven’t heard by now, I have a best friend and her name is Kelly. Unfortunately we only get to see each other about once a year. When we grow up our plan is to buy houses next to each other, wear matching sweatsuits and watch reality shows and eat bon-bons while our kids are at school. Kelly called me this week and announced that she was going to be making a surprise visit to D-town. This will be the best weekend of my life.
