Yep, it's a visual depiction of the quip, "A friend helps you move, a good/best friend helps you move a body."

Oh! That is much better said!

Although, with my best friends, they're probably going to be the ones to send me to jail if I murdered someone.

Yeah, that's the gist of it. A friend is someone who helps you do mundane stuff like move a sofa. A best friend helps you dispose of the body.

Ha ha ha.

(Well, I thought it was funny...)

Don't tell me a secret that I can't tell my husband, because he is the one person that I don't want to have to filter my thoughts, feelings, or words around.

However, my husband's "secrets" or privacy is off limits to anybody else in the world but me.

For me, he is the top. Nothing and nobody compares to the closeness or friendship that I have with him.

I love all my levels of relationships. Family, church family, friends, co-workers, internet friends, and acquaintances.

There are people on this forum that I truly care about, though I have never met them face-to-face. To them, I am Tough Grits or TG. They may or may not ever meet me, but in a way, they know me better than many "friends" that I have.

On these forums, I post my thoughts, my feelings, my testimony. Only my immediate and extended family spend enough time with me to hear some of the same thoughts and stories that I share here.

My husband comes first, but he knows how much I enjoy and need to write and express myself. So he is not jealous of any time that I spend here with you guys! ~TG

I just realized, too late, that I committed <gasp> the horrible sin of "thread necromancy".

Sorry!
