Friends!!

The other night I had the chance to catch up online with some old friends from college that I haven't talked to in awhile, and that caused me to get pretty down. I was really sad when I first left Nac and moved to Houston because I had a great set of friends up there. Friends I could trust 100% and friends that were truly great and had great hearts. Then we all got busy again, and slowly stopped talking. That paired with the job changing issues meant that pretty much my only friends happened to be my husband, and two cats. Depressing right? Slowly I'm coming out of my shell in Houston and meeting more friends but inside I still miss having that close nit group. Ironically we all started texting each other this past week, and my spirits lifted. Yet I still felt an emptiness because my best friend from Nac now lives in Dallas and I couldn't get ahold of him/didn't know if he was ignoring me. Then thanks to another friend she told me he was asking how i was doing... interesting. I said I was good but missed everyone. She passed his number on to me and WALLA! It was as though a day hadn't even passed.

In a random series of events, his phone had dumped all of his numbers out, and he had so much trouble that he had to get a new number. I didn't know this! Anyways we're back in contact again, talking and texting pretty much non stop. We even text while watching Glee last night. Should we now cue in the jealous husband? NOPE! Why not? Because my husband is awesome! Out of all of my friends this is the one he trust the most and knows is not a threat. Partially because the friend is not attracted to women, but also because this was the friend that I could rely on while I was in Nac and Chris lived in Houston. I think my Chris is actually excited because now I have someone else to bug about random stuff instead of him ;) kidding of course but it does mean that his ears get a break every now and then. I also get to see him tomorrow before and after the funeral. It is a sad occasion to have to get together for, but I'll admit I'm excited about seeing my old friends again.

I'm excited, and I'm happy because I feel like I have my best friend back even though we're HOURS apart. Thank goodness for unlimited texting. :)
