  154. My best friend's name is Joey. He is a drummer in a band. I met him in 7th grade and then moved across the country. We stayed in touch and visited over the past 15 years and are always able to pick up right where we left off. I'm married now (not to him) and about to go visit for the first time in about 10 years, so I'm pretty pumped.
