One time last year, I was very upset about something, very depressed. I don't even remember why. I needed to get out of the house, so I drove out to Charlotte and went to Angela's. She gave me a sucker in the shape of a heart with a very long plastic stick. It made me so grateful. It didn't cheer me up completely, but it made me happy to know that someone acknowledged what I was feeling and WANTED me to feel better. That's what I needed at that moment in time, and she knew that. Angela just has that way, she's very good at telling when something is wrong and get it out of you. That's why people come to her for advice or to spill their guts or just to talk. She's there and she listens. She'd drop everything if it might make you feel better. It felt nice to have someone care for me like that, to really be there for me when I needed them. Like I said, I don't remember why I was upset, and I guess I just pinpointed why.
