Old Friends

I received a phone call from an old friend tonight. It always surprises me when I'm handed the phone. No one but my Mom calls me on the apartment land line. I figured it must be a tele-marketer or something. I was relieved when it was my friend Jess who I haven't seen in 5 years, since I moved to Chicago.

I met Jess while still living in my hometown about 7 or 8 years ago. We ended up being close friends. When she moved to Colorado and I moved to Chicago, we just sorta stopped talking. Well now she's back in Fond du Lac and got my number from a mutual friend.

It was weird to talk to her. When you haven't seen someone in that long, it can be hard to think of something to say without reminiscing. We ended up talking for over an hour, apparently I thought of something. She sounded great. Hopefully I'll be seeing her in a few weeks. I've been trying to plan a trip up there all summer, but it's proving harder than expected to get away.
