Our Story (by Lauren)

Welcome to our blog! This is a blog written by Meredith C-N and Lauren B who resided on the same street in Minnetonka, Minnesota for 15 years before going their seperate ways after high school. Now 20 years into their friendship (oy vey! Thats a long time!), they have ended up in the 2 biggest cities in the country, Lauren (myself) in NYC and Meredith in LA. We went from playing pretend on Ann Lane to playing reality (not as much fun) in the craziest metropolises in the US. Not too shabby.

Bicostal Bosom Buddies was created for multiple reasons.
#1 Out of spite toward a former high school classmate who created his own NY blog and is semi-famous because of it. However, he is highly pompous and ridiculous so we thought we'd take matters into our own hands and tell everyone how non-pompous and non-ridiculous Hopkins High School grads see the world
#2 From our first days together, up to our 20-somethings, we have been creative. Mer is a fabulous singer who has a role in her first professional Opera this month. I am a singer in a (semi-)professional choir and a supposedly talented yet half-assed writer who finds it easier to write amusing blogs and emails than stories. We also both did our share of acting back in the day. This blog is a way for us to express out creativity together in an amusing way.
#3 Because the world should know how NY and LA are seen through the eyes of 2 midwestern girls just starting out on their own. The funny, the scary, the sad, it can all be shared here for other people's enjoyment.

Please continue to check back for blogs from both Meredith (who writes in blue) and me (who writes...in...green...obviously). We hope you find a loyalty to this blog and share it with anyone who you think will enjoy it. Much love everyone! MWA MWA (NY kisses). ~LB
