This post is about my good friend, Daniel. I would consider myself to have 3 best guy friends (not counting my husband or brother), and Daniel is definitely one of them. I met Daniel in 9th grade at FRA. Though many people think me and Daniel are friends because of John, this is not the case. In fact, me and Daniel were friends before him and John! SO in other words, we go way back!
Daniel and I share a very special relationship. He is one of the very few guys that I can undress and neither him nor John thinks anything of it. Now I know this sounds very strange, but if you knew me and Daniel, then you would just know... sometimes a little alcohol leads to a little bit of undressing, that's all... I also like to dance with Daniel, or on Daniel, either works! I think Daniel gets a little embarrassed, but he just brushes it off. What a good sport!
Many of you might not know this, but I actually lived with Daniel for 3 years. You see, Freshman year in college I hated my roommate, so I lived with John and Daniel in the good ol' "box". Yep, a very tiny room with 2 twin beds, and the 3 of us shared it. Yet another time Daniel was a good sport! Then there were the 2 years at Crossing Place. I technically lived next door, but I might as well have lived with them. I was at their apartment all the time and spent the night most nights. Daniel was normally there when I would roll out of bed at about 1 in the afternoon, he would just laugh at my WONDERFUL morning look and look away. Ha!
Then there was also the time in high school when I drank a little too much and tried to convince Daniel that he should touch my boobs. Obviously, Daniel found that a little awkward since he was now best friends with my boyfriend, but also because my boyfriend was sitting right next to him. Ha! I kept asking and asking him to, but he refused. John finally got tired of me asking, so he said "Daniel just do it and make her shut up!" So since I have had the same boyfriend (now husband) since 8th grade, Daniel is one of 2 guys that has the wonderful privilege of touching my boobs. Ha!
Best of all, when my husband seems to forget about me and decides to walk 100 miles per hour and leave me far behind, Daniel waits on me and walks beside me. He tells me he will make sure I never get hit by a truck! What a great friend...
Unfortunately, Daniel is no longer living in Knoxville and it is just not the same without him! Of course he comes to visit often (well this weekend will be his second time), but it's just not the same with him all the way in Nashville. Maybe John will get a job there and we will be reunited once again!
So really this is just a post about how much I love Daniel! Hope you all enjoy - especially you Daniel!!
