in crystalline splendor come down . . . .
Crystal is coming today, and I am happy. Or rather, I am going to pick her up from Rising Sun. But I am still happy. It has so long since I have had a friend in the flesh who was concerned about the things that matter. Crystal is very much an artist, and I had more than a suspicion from the time I met her that we were going to be close friends. But the stars were never right. Until now.
That sounds vaguely astrological and fatalistic, which I don't mean to. But it's true. Sometimes you meet someone and you just know that you will be friends with them . . that you are kindred spirits, twin souls, what you will . . . but you are just too lazy to get around to it at the time, or you don't NEED a friend so bad it hurts, ect. . .
And then one day things just come together and you become friends, as you've always known you would. That is what I think it will be like with Crystal, now. Now is the time.
