Happy Birthday Adam!

It's hard to believe that it's been 8 years (I had to count on my fingers just now to make sure... and that's a lot) of birthdays that we've been celebrating together.  Time flies, obviously, because we were busy being a little bit ridiculous.

Adam and I met each other the first night of school while we were passing through a doorway.  Serendipity at its best.  We struck a conversation and bonded over Western North Carolina, his home, my roots.  From that night (minus a few hiccups) we started pooling our friends into the Fan Club.

You're one of the best, most charming guys I know and one of my very best friends.  Our phone conversations are nothing short of day-making (I tried calling you at the stroke of midnight east coast time, but your phone is not working so plug it in and call me back!).  It's been close to 3 years, but, mark my words, this will be the year that I make it to Hawaii! (As in give me 12 months to forget about being a graduate student!)

I'm thankful for that fateful meeting.  I'm thankful for our friends.  Shik is thankful for our listserv and that's enough for me.  I sure do miss you and your sweet little family being in NC, but we'll see you soon!  Have a very happy birthday drink one for everyone in the Fan Club!
P.S. The recent popularity of Elijah Wood (on the TV show Wilfred) makes me miss you even more.  Love you little Frodo.
