22 years. we met during summer school the year before i started kindergarten. our parents and siblings are all good friends also. i haven't seen her since 2002 tho. she lives in LA so hopefully i'll be able to visit.

beyond that, i've known one of my best friends since the beginning freshman year of hs (sadly enough, it's been 12 years). she's visiting from michigan tonight so we're going out to dinner.
