Good Friends vs Best Friends

The first week of Summer has been pretty slow! I haven't started working yet, and most of my family is out of town, so things have been quiet.  However, Thursday night I had Jandee, Courtney, Emily, Jodi, Berkley, and McKell over for a Girls Night.  It was just us home, and we were sitting upstairs watching The Notebook when I felt something scratching my arm.  I looked down and saw Brandon crawling on my floor. Holy Cow! I screamed SO loud. "I heard we were having a Girls Night??" he laughed.  We all tease him about being a girl because of his long hair.  He stayed for most of the movie, but left before we got to straighten his hair. Bummer! McKell, Jodi, and Berkley had to leave, too, but Jandee, Courtney, and Emily stayed for the night. 
Throughout the whole night, I kept thinking about these funny, stupid little lists you see all over Facebook and on Emails and Greeting Cards.  They list the differences between Good Friends and Best Friends.  As I watched my friends, I started making my own list of real things that go on between us.

Good Friends vs. BEST Friends

 Me, Emily, Jandee, Berkley, Jodi, Courtney

Good Friends always smile and act happy, BEST Friends openly express their anger.
Good Friends return the clothes they borrow from you, BEST Friends keep them until they forget they ever belonged to you.
Good Friends will keep it secret when you tell them who you like, BEST Friends will instantly chase down the boy, tell him, and start trying to hook you two up.
Good Friends will sleep on the floor at sleepovers so that you can have the bed, BEST Friends will just hop in bed with you, spooning you all night long.
Good Friends will give you time and space when you need it, BEST Friends will never leave you alone, torturing you until you finally give in and tell them what is wrong.
Good Friends will text you to find out how your games/meets went, BEST Friends watched the whole thing, and possibly screamed at the Refs a couple times.
Good Friends will pretend like they like your outfit, BEST Friends will tell you if you look ridiculous.
Good Friends will comfort you when you cry, BEST Friends will cry right along with you.
Good Friends will shut and lock the bathroom door while they are using the toilet, BEST Friends..well, they won't.
Good Friends will leave you alone while you use the bathroom, BEST Friends..well, again, they won't, they'll come in and do their hair or take a shower or something.
Good Friends knock on your door, BEST Friends walk right in.
Good Friends will silently hold grudges, BEST Friends will confront you, maybe punch you once or twice, and then move on.
Good Friends listen to you, BEST Friends interrupt and try to finish your sentences.
Good Friends wait to see what kind of mood you're in, BEST Friends can predict what mood you'll be in.
Good Friends will let you know if you're about to do something dangerous, BEST Friends will do it with you!
Good Friends are careful about what they say around you, BEST Friends tell it like it is, holding nothing back.

I love my best friends!
