It's amazing how much good one cup of coffee with a close friend can do for one's well-being and spirit. One latte and two hours later, I feel infinitely better than when I woke up.
I also find it interesting that we can be surprised to be reminded of how much we treasure certain friends. Does that make sense? Like, I know I love my friends. Duh. But sometimes I'll be sitting with this friend or that friend and it'll hit me like a ton of bricks that "Man, this person is so fucking awesome and I am so happy to have this person in my life." Not that we necessarily take friends for granted most of the time. I'm just not sure we occasionally take the time to really stop, think, and realize how truly wonderful our friends are and revel in the gratitude of such things.
It was FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC to see you today, Ash. I didn't realize how desperately I missed you until you walked through the door! Love you long time, babe.

I was JUST thinking that!
When you go through the growth and the growing up, you cycle through groups of friends. It's those friends who withstand various boyfriends, circles, and silly dramas that facilitate those growth sessions that shine through all the rest.
I'm so glad we found each other, and I'm eager for our next Sunday morning at Common Grounds.
In the mean time, I can't wait to see you on New Years and I'm SOOOO stoked to finally meet Karena. She sounds like the type of person I'd love to have in my long-term bag-o-lovely-ladies!!
