happy day(s)
Aug. 11th, 2009 06:32 pmToday is Kitty's birthday, my best friend and my ex, the one who knows me best of all, the one who loves me despite or because of all my various strange qualities, the girl who told me I was beautiful until I could look in the mirror and almost see what she saw. She gets it, no matter what, and she's gone through so goddamn much that I never fail to be grateful for her ability to get back up. I'm so glad she's in my life. Also, she makes fun of me when I need it, which is very essential. *grins* You'll never see this, but happy birthday, baby girl.
Today is also, as you all know, Gerard Way's five-years-clean-and-sober-day. I'm so fucking happy for him, and so glad he found it in himself to keep going, five years ago. When I tell people about my headfirst tumble into bandom, I tend to say something like, "Well, I started by reading FOB fanfic, then transitioned into reading MCR, and then I saw that spit-in-their-fucking-faces-video, and that was pretty much it." Gee Way, you care, and I love you and your merry band of misfits for it. Happy birthday, you too, and thank you.
