Missy and Ben got married this weekend. I really wish I could be in two places at once.
Missy and I met at Gamma Phi in college and were roommates before she transferred to the University of Iowa. Missy knows what I am going through over here in Japan because while we were roommates, Ben was deployed to Iraq with the Army. I would wake up every morning at 5 am to his phone calls from overseas and a sleepy, "Hi, B" from Missy. At the time I didn't know how she did it; now I am living it.
The girls called me twice today. Once while they were waiting to walk down the aisle and again from the reception. I got to talk to Miss Miller and then Mrs. Tvedte and all the other girls. It was wonderful. I may have been crying girls, but it's just cause I miss you so much. You know I hate missing things. I like to be there for my friends. Thanks for being there for me today, too.
