Reunions can be so SWEET!

The most spectacular thing happened! I went to check my e-mail last night and (pathetically) checked in my facebook. Much to my surprise I had a friend request, curiosity overcame my sleepiness and I clicked on it. It was my friend Jenn! I haven't seen her in about10 years!She's still just as amazing as I remember her!

It was a strange case of what to say. So much has happened, but it just seems that despite the long years without contact we still run on similar wavelengths. She said she felt terrible for not keeping in touch, but there wasn't a day that went by she didn't think of me or talk about me. It was like a revelation. I am the EXACT same way. She was my first real friend and it was simply magickal the way the love never faded or how neither of us had forgotten it. She now lives in Arizona and we talked about visiting. I hope we can keep in touch this time!

I just live for moments like these. It creates this feeling that I can't put into words and I start to remember stupid little things. I remember how she used to make me eat snowballs, or how she loved scars, and how her and I would tell ghost stories all night long.  I simply cannot wait to see her again!
