good for the soul...

(in the picture: kristy, mary, me and bobbie)
tonight i got to hang out with my dear friend mary... one of the things i love about mary is that she is one of the few people i've been around in my lifetime who is a natural, normal friend... i know i can be completely me around mary and not feel like i have to be something different... she loves me the way i am... and the feeling is mutual... i don't have to perform, pretend or apologize... when we're around each other, we pick up from where we left off... i haven't seen her in 9 months, and it felt like it had just been a few weeks... i like who i am when i'm around mary... i love the way she puts people at ease...

a group of us went to joe's crab shack... and i was a little sad that it was a big group of people, because, in all honesty, my favorite times spent with mary are one-on-one over a great cup of coffee sitting and talking about anything and everything...

luckily, after the crowd died down, we did escape - and went to starbucks and got two non-fat chais and talked and watched people... it was refreshing... it was wonderful... i miss her being in my life all the time - close enough for a cup of coffee...
