Do you ever have those moments when you stop and ever so briefly evaluate yourself in the current situation?
Tonight, I found myself watching the entire season (thus far) of Cupid online while eating cookie dough ice cream and at least 5 times squealing "YAY! LOOOOOVE!".
And I was completely content. Someone smack me.

In other news....
Thursday Tess, one of my Ireland friends, called and invited me for a drink on the Terrace. It was such a good time! We talked about everything- Ireland obviously, but also what's happening now and what we plan for the future. I haven't had one of those no stop conversations that leave you feeling really connected to the person in a while. She wants to go to Cave of the Mounds with me so hopefully we'll hang out again soon.
This is significant because.... Most of my Ireland friends are uninterested in maintaining our relationships now that were home and don't need each other. Tess, I believe does want to stay friends, at least with me, however our schedules for the past year (wow!) have prevented us from getting together. Regardless, I continued to invite her to things.
Moral of the story... Every once in a long while my stubbornness works out. Of course, this glimmer of hope comes exactly at the moment when I decided to remove myself from one-sided relationships. What would life be if not ironic?
friendships,
tess
