Currently I’m sitting at work with nothing to do but listen to graceland on repeat and think about how wonderful this weekend was. All summer I’ve mostly complained about being home while everyone else is away, about working a crappy job (even if the pay is decent) and in general about not wanting to be in Virginia. But the fact is that I've got it good here.

Since college there have been comings and goings in my friendships but the permanent departure of becca seems to have reversed that tide. She was a brainy and she made me wise up. She’s our heart and its going strong.

I’ve decided I don’t believe in coincidences or chance. ‘for a dancer’ came on the radio at dinner before Stephen’s show. Like lexie says, you can’t listen to that song and not feel connected, to each other and to her. Things like that just can’t be random.

I’ve also decided that I want to become a connoisseur of real hugs. People came out of the woodwork for Friday night so lots of overdue hellos were had. To be given a firm and full hug - to be physically held for just a second in the warmth of a greeting - well, it’s just divine.
