Easter Eggs and Separation Anxiety

When I was little, my Dad and I always made an Easter Egg tree, you know, the really tacky-looking ones with plastic Easter eggs tied to the shortest branches. This year, we've decided to do it again, for my little cousins that are all coming over to my house tomorrow. Somehow when I was younger, it was so much more fun to thread invisible string through tiny little holes than it is now. It's sad that I'm more excited about the few hours this afternoon in which I'll be sitting on a hot, uncomfortably hard tennis court, than I am about decorating for Easter. The food will make it all worthwhile!!!

You're probably all wondering why I'm rambling about my daily life on a roommate page...obviously, Ash is not with me this weekend. The main purpose for this blog was so that we could keep each other up to date with our lives while we're apart this summer. We've decided that now, a week before we part, is a great time to practice. While we're on the topic of Ashley...We have been told recently that we have separation anxiety.
Symptoms of separation anxiety in adults include an avoidance of being alone and a fear that harm will befall those that they love. (http://anxietypanichealth.com/reference/separation-anxiety-disorder-adult/) We don't seriously think that we have separation anxiety, but sometimes it just makes sense. We hate to be apart, and often we do worry about each other. Ash said in our "about us" page that we have a unique friendship, and she wasn't kidding. It's stronger than a typical best friend friendship. We're sorority sisters, but sometimes it's like we were separated at birth. :)
