My sister from another mister...

I have a reasonably small close family I suppose, because most of them live in Wales, and there's almost no instances of having step-relatives. Fear not though. I have a sister. No, we're not bound by blood, but by solid gold friendship. To me she's a best friend, but she's also, in spirit, a damn fine sister to me. I think we consider eachother 'related' like this because right from the start, when we first talked, something clicked, and we could instantly trust eachother and openly talk about anything. Frankly, having someone like this in my life has been completely invaluable. At times I wonder what I'd do without my sister, because she's always here by my side, and she could cheer me up and improve my day in an instant. She's lovely, and so fucking funny. (I'm sure Pablo will agree...) She's just too good to ever lose. God forbid, she better be here to stay! Admittedly, we've had our moments...but tell me, what strong partnerships, in reality and in fiction DON'T go through rough patches? Only those who are truly connected will make it through and return to how they were before, and I can safely say we made it. So, why am I saying all this now? Honestly, there's no particular reason, it's just the truth. It's just a heartfelt thankyou that I need to publicly throw out there, because she's bloody brilliant. So thankyou ever so much Katie. Long may what we have continue.
