I have to say just because the past couple weeks have been a little busy definitely doesn't mean our friendship is any less important to me. I'm glad to have you there thick and thin, serious or silly, and hope that we can keep learning more about one another in the year to come. You're cool people, you know? Here's hoping you truly meant it when you said you'd rock a Snuggie with pride because I mean for real. Merry Christmas, Rosita. Stay warm and celebrate your holidays harder than the little drummer boy hits the egg nog.
