Today I had a really bad day and now I'm facing some truly unpleasant decisions. Despite all that I was feeling very smug and a few moments ago, I was telling Alan about this smugness. Yesterday I wrote a post about wanting bad-50s cats'-eye glasses, and immediately two of my friends posted: one saying she thought she could hook me up and the other saying that she had two pairs, to either of which I was welcome once she found them. Then I got to work and saw that another friend had sent me 8 - 9 links from E-bay; she'd looked at dozens of listings and culled the ones she thought were coolest. So there I was, only seconds ago, telling Alan that I felt truly sorry for anyone who didn't have my friends as their friends, because my friends are the ABSOLUTE BEST, taking time to worry about stuff I want amid all the other pressing, demanding details of their extremely busy lives. I'm not worthy.

Then I walked into the study to send an e-mail, and checked the blog of one of those aforementioned friends. She's already visited a shop, found and purchased a pair for me. I've said it before, blogged it before, but it bears repeating: I don't know what I ever did to deserve such great friends, but damn, I'm glad I did it. I'm SOOOOO not worthy.

Smugly yours,
Helly With The Fabulous Friends
