Tests of Friendship

On screens both large and small, you can tell who the best friend is because she always walks into the lead character's home without knocking and helps herself to a cup of coffee. And she knows where the cups are. I was feeling sorry for myself* because I don't know where anyone keeps their coffee cups (and my mom's house doesn't count, since I used to live there).

On the other hand, I do have four people who will call and say, "Hi, it's me," and I'll know who it is. I think that might be just as good a barometer of friendship as the coffee cup test. Plus, my sister pointed out that I know where she keeps her cups, and not everyone knows that about a sister, so it counts.

*Imagine that
