Trust me, the only thing that could make me jog at 4:30 in the morning is if DeBrand's had a sale that started at 5:00. ;-)
Thanks for being an awesome friend, C!
whew, dodged that bullet! LOL
Ha!Ha! You both crack me up!
Fun post, Colleen. Actually, I'd get up a jog with a friend at 4:30 a.m. My college best friend and I used to walk to the gym on campus three mornings a week at 6:00 a.m. to work out.
I'd fly, drive, or do whatever if a friend needed me. I'd give money too.

Rachel, I'm in need of some money for my chocolate addiction . . . .
Rachel?
Rachel?
I am still your friend, right? :-)
Depends on the friend and my frame of mind. You guys, pretty much anything...IF you really did need me. There is, however, a difference between true friends who would cover my back as quickly as I would cover theirs, and those who call themselves friends but who actually want friendship and are willing to give nothing in return.
But that's for a different blog....;-)
I remember the night one of my best friend's husband got in trouble and we had to bail him out. I went to 3 different grocery stores to cash checks to get enough to pay the bondsman.
Then as we left the store, I was nervous - it was after midnight in L.A. suburbia. SO the store gave us a body guard out to the car. A sixteen year old kid who didn't weight more than 90 pounds, soaking wet.
To make matters worse, I had to keep up with him as he jumped over the railing. Being - uh - older, I went between the top and bottom rail ... and split my pants.
Ah, yes, the things we do for friendship.
I think jogging period is taking friendship a little too far... personally ;)
I always knew you were not quite right in the head, Rachel. Trust me, I'll never ask that of you! LOL You're right, Jaime. that's just twisted.
You're right, Cheryl, there are friends then their are FRIENDS that stick closer than a brother.
Ane, I can so see you doing this!
WE get up at 3:00AM~ but not to go jogging, we get up at that time 5 days and some 6days a week, to go too work!
Okay. Now you all have exhausted me. With my weird body clock, I go to bed between 2 and 4 am and sleep until noon! Have done that for years. My REAL friends know not to call before noon unless it's an emergency. Then they know they are free to call...but it had better be a genuine emergency, not just breaking a nail or Junior forgot his homework.
Uh, jogging? Are you kidding me?
Let's see...for friends I've gotten up at 3am to answer her call and then drive 45 minutes to go be with her because her cat had just died. (Of course, the cat was 15 years old and we all loved him)
I've stayed up all night long too many times to count because a friend was depressed or needed emotional support. Bringing chocolate with me, of course.
I've cooked many meals and "snuck" them into friends homes so they could give a special meal to their husband or boyfriend, etc.
Okay, and the one that really had the most importance, I took a friend's children on a weekend trip out of state because her soon-to-be-ex had gone nuts and threatened her and the kids.
