I'm sorry that I haven't talked to you recently, I was just being shy.  I never really know what to say during conversations (because I'm so awkward) but don't think that I haven't been thinking about you.  When I read on your twitter that you were getting surgery because you have a breathing problem, I was worried, and I didn't know what to say.  I never know what to say in those situations.  It's embarrassing, really.  

I was just thinking the other day how I haven't said anything to you in awhile, and was even wondering if wee were still friends.  But now I know :)

I will always love that sig you made me.  I'll always love it, because you made it out of the kindness from your heart.

I think you're a great guy, Shady.  I think that you deserve every bit of happiness that comes your way.  I don't usually say this to people, but.... I love you.  I think you're a great friend.

I'm a little embarrassed that I spilled my guts like this, but I've always meant to say it.
