Reunions

On my way to pick up my little girl at the airport last Thursday, I met with an old friend from highschool. It has been over 14 year since we last saw each other. I was really nervous and wondered if she would look or act similiar to the girl I once knew. But when she came through the door, her smile calmed my worries. It was fun catching up. She now has three kids and lives in Los Angeles with her husband. We even prank called another friend that we also hadn't seen since highschool.

I find it fascinating that my boyfriend still communicates on a regular basis with friends he has had since elementary school. The longest friend I communicate with on regular basis is a co-worker from a previous job nine years ago. I find it difficult to keep in touch as the vicissitudes of life exhausts me.

However, I want to make a better effort at staying in touch with my old friends. Maybe that will be my late New Year's Resolution...
