Day 11:  A photo of you taken recently This is probably the most recent photo of me, taken on my birthday.  The handsome gentleman on my left (your right) is my BFF Paul.  Paul is wearing one of my birthday presents: the mustache on his face.  There’s a long story and inside jokes to explain why that mustache was my gift, so I won’t go there.  Let’s just say that he wasn’t too keen on wearing the mustache, but he wore it all day long (at work and school) and endured a lot of ribbing from our friends that night at dinner— just because he knew it would bring a smile to my face. We have a pretty intense friendship and, sometimes, things can get tough.  But during those times, this picture speaks a certain truth:  That sometimes you do something silly, something unusual, something that you don’t really want to do.  Maybe for a laugh or a smile, maybe for a birthday, but ultimately because there is just enough love there to make a complete fool out of yourself for a friend.
