I got a phone call today from my dead best friend.

It was Kristin's phone number, Kristin's phone, but it wasn't Kristin who left the voicemail.

"Hey Katy, it's Kristin! Just calling to — suppressed laughter — just calling to say I'm actually alive! I totally fooled you!"

And then the horrible impersonator can't control himself, and he starts laughing. I hear a few of his friends laughing in the background, too. They think this is the most hysterical thing in the world.

I was just starting to move forward, too. I thought this kind of thing only happened in movies.

Back to square one. Kristin, I'm so sorry.

Love,
Katy
