Great Friends

Today I had lunch with one of my really good friends Shannon. He always brings a smile to my face and there is never a dull moment during our conversation. The funny part about today was that we hadn't gotten the chance to talk in so long and we just picked up right where we left off. In fact I don't think we had seen each other since his Dad's funeral in December.

I love friendships like that! Ones that don't require a lot of hard work or effort. There are just certain people in your life that you can always depend on...Jocelyn, Melanie, Jayna, Bridget. Then there are those friendships that you sometimes lose track of due to time and effort but know that when you finally do get together you won't be able to stop talking. Frienships like Shannon's! Like my friends from college Kristen and Julia who I hadn't seen in years but since we saw each other at a wedding this summer have done nothing but email and blog with each other like old times.

And to talk about those kind of great friendships, my friend Kristen (really I met her through my bro) called me for the first time since the Winter yesterday to go to a concert on Saturday night. It was so great to hear from her and I am excited about hanging out again.

I wasn't sure about moving back to Detroit but it just seems that every time I doubt my life great people come into it to remind me how great it really is. I am truely for the first time in a long time starting to be happy again.

Now if I could just get that boyfriend of mine to send me some flowers like Melanie's husband...
