Where's Whitney's Soup?
 
Another one of my BFFs (I used to be a one-BFF type of girl, but not anymore. I’ve got 4.5* of them. They know about each other though so it’s okay. I don’t think there are any jealousy issues.) called me today to ask why I’m not going to her Halloween party. I told her it’s because it’s cold outside, when the truth is – I bought 3 new books on Friday and have stayed in since to read them (not that it being cold outside isn’t also a lousy excuse). But there was no way I was going to tell her that, as she has once told me that the only reason to stay in (as in being in your own apartment during the hours of midnight to 4am) is for dick and never for book. Undeniably, she is the wisest of the 4.5.

For about 20 minutes today, I was worried that that number, 4.5, might go down to 3.5. I had texted a BFF a question, she answered and asked me why I asked her my question, I told her not to worry about it and then as a distraction I told her I miss her, but I received no reciprocation to the I miss you. So I texted her again, “Wait a minute, do you not feel the same way?” 20 minutes later, she texted me back telling me she misses me too and called me a silly girl.

As awesome as it can be to not be tied down to only one BFF, this lifestyle makes you a little paranoid about getting dumped because you are 4.5 times more likely to be broken up with.
