I Miss Nate!
It seems like I've been saying "I miss Nate!" about once a day lately. A lesser man than Steve might be bothered by this, but luckily he always just says, "Me too." Mostly what I miss about Nate is his ability to make any worry or problem disappear in about five seconds. Rather than offering up lengthy solutions or possible proactive responses to the current drama, he just says "Yeah, she's a b****, we don't like her." And in those 8 words is all the validation, sympathy and support that's needed. Then everyone is free to move on.Other good things about Nate: he's the best best man, he can convince me to go to California with less than 48 hours notice, he bought me a fish, he makes me laugh, he makes Steve laugh, he makes my parents laugh, he can talk Laguna Beach, he gets along with my Grammy, he has the perfect road trip car, he loves Target and he makes fun of Dress Barn.
Yeah, so I miss him...

We miss Nate, too, because he utterly ignores us when you are not in town. This is not very becoming of the son I never had, and is seriously jeopardizing the campaign to have you and Steve settle here after your wedding. Perhaps if you start to think of Nate as the brother you never had it will put things back in perspective :-)

nate is the greatest person ever! seriously, i was laughing so hard, i seriously found myself wyping tears from my eyes. even though most of this is b-s, i still loved every word of it. i seriously suggest that each and every person reading this take 3 minutes out of their day, and say this about a friend or loved one. it does wonders for the self-esteem department. rachel (and stevo) in conclusion, i love you both dearly and miss you both more than words can tell. honestly. i am so honored to have both of you as such close friends, and god (i know, i should capitalize this, but it goes against my rule of never capitalizing)... anyways, and god knows we keep eachother just a little bit more sane. so if you ever need someone to plan a spur of the moment trip to anywhere (laguna beach preferable) you let me know, and i'll be there. oooh, this is sounding pretty good. can this be my best man speech?? haha. okay, i know it's not very manly, but hey, neither am i, but i might possibly be wyping away a tear or two from my eye this very second. damn dust... ehem.... ok. miss you. love you. mean it.
