What happens when...

...every year without fail you send a former best friend of yours (since the 9th grade) a Happy Birthday greeting? And every year (as of the past two) without fail they don't respond. Do you mark it up as they don't wish to talk to you, too busy for you, or that they do find comfort in you thinking about them, but just can't find the words to say "thank you" after a petty falling out? Do you continue on with your life without them, even though you miss them greatly? Or do you hope that one day, they'll forgive and forget and decide to let bygones be bygones. Oh well...

Pictures of Minne coming reaaaaalll soon...
