Where does all my best material come from? Ashleigh of course! This one is no exception. You should really follow her here, but then, why would you need to read my blog?! ha!
"There is magic in long-distance friendships. They let you relate to other human beings in a way that goes beyond being physically together and is often more profound."
Gee...I absolutely, 100% believe that will all my heart. My friendships with mes amies just across the ocean are some of the deepest, most profound, enriching friendships I've ever had in my life. And although we may only talk once every couple of months, and send snail mail back and forth to each other, it makes the quality of our friendship that much more beautiful. It's not about quantity, or how many friends you have on facebook (as much as my sister might seem to disagree) but about quality. Even my college friends are now long distance relationships but when we do have the opportunity to get together....man, is it a good time. I'm talking good time. I love those crazy girls and always will.
So to all my friends in their respective corners of this huge world who still read this scattered blog, I love you and cherish the relationship we have....no matter how often we are able to talk!
...........Leading up to the fact that Ms. Laura Bottomley is coming to New York in 2 weeks!!!! Eeeeeeeek! It will have been almost a year since I've seen her face, but her parents live here in Manhattan and I have reserved two entire days off for us to catch up and relive old times, and make new memories here in New York City! AND....oh my goodness...YES! It gets better!! Ashleigh is coming to the States in July!!!!! I think I might faint. She's not going to be quite as easy to catch, she will be visiting her family in Sacramento for a few days then heading up to Michigan to visit the camp she cherishes so much. But ONE WAY OR ANOTHER (yes, believe it) I will see my lovely Ashleigh while she's here!
Yet just another reason why I love my job.
