Reason #7,261 you need girlfriends in life.
Last night, 7:13 p.m.
Me: “Katie? Are you at home?”
Katie: “No, I’m at dinner with some friends… but what’s wrong?”
Me: “I… I… {sob} justneedtotaaaaaaalk.”
Katie: “Go directly to my house. The door is unlocked. Go to my bedroom, get in my bed and I’ll be right there.”
Me: {sob, sob, sniffle}
Ten minutes later, Katie enters her bedroom to find me under the covers in, um, her bed.
Katie: “I got my food to go so I could be here faster.”
Me: “You left Cracker Barrel for me?”
Katie: “Yes. Now, speak.”
You know it’s real friendship when they’re willing to leave the endless supply of biscuits and cornbread to come listen to you cry in their bed.

okay, but I must say…while I appreciate that her door was unlocked for you…I’m a little concerned for her safety by leaving it unlocked all the time…
