Dear Mary, Jess, Matt, Penny, Tully/Poof, Churizzo, and Harvey,
You have been lifesavers. I don't know if you know how much or at all, but you've been the best thing to happen to me during this pretty rough period in my life.
Mary, you're absolutely one of my best friends. I can tell you anything, there is no awkwardness, and I know that no matter what you will give me an honest answer. I truly believe you have my best interest at heart and want me to be happy just as much as you want to be. In the short time we've known each other you've become one of the people I trust the most, and know that if I want to come home and dump my worries you won't mind, or if I want to come home and just drink wine and watch ridiculous home makeover shows, that's fine too. You're my rock and I love you.
Jess, you bring out the wild in me, which I love. I'm more adventurous, more willing to stay up later and slack on sleep to just spend some time with everyone. You drag out my inner "party" girl, which really just consists of wanting to go out to bars and have fun and not care. You've made me more carefree, and I really like that. Plus you're a great roommate, you're respectful and keep things fair.
Matt, I love you like a second brother. You know how to make me laugh. You let my little gamer nerd come out. You also make adorable noises when the puppies play. Keep on keepin' on.
Penny and Tully/Poofy/thing, I LOVE YOU. You make coming home an adventure and something to look forward to. I needed unconditional love, I needed something that's sweet and wriggly and cuddly and you two are it. You melt my heart and you heal my hurt. My one complaint, learn to poop outside.
Churizzo, you give me something interesting to talk about. Who has a hedgehog, honestly? I don't get to play with you much, but you're still part of this household that makes my life better, so thanks are due to you too.
Harvey, please love me. I think I'm growing on you, day by day, but I can't be sure it's not just because I'm the first one home after you've been left alone with the crazy puppies. Keep up the King of the Mountain trick, it's really cute. I wish I had more space on my phone and time in my day to just watch you guys interact. Too cute.
You're the loves of my life right now, all of you, I need you and I'm so glad I've done this.
Love love love,
Liz
