Well, after ANOTHER long absence, I am recommitting (again) to
this blog. I really do love going through my old posts, so even if no one else
reads this, keeping an online "journal" of my life is worth it for
me. And with that in mind...
I'm sitting in the Dulles airport right now after spending the
last few days in DC visiting two of my best friends from Davidson, Alex and
Sara. Sara ran the DC Rock ‘n Roll Half Marathon and so Alex and I, along
with a gaggle of Sara’s other friends from high school, made signs and cheered
all morning! Pretty sure our signs worked, since Sara crushed her previous PR
and finished in 1:50. Yeah, she ran 13.1 miles almost 40 minutes faster than I
have. Such a star!
We spent the rest of Saturday brunching and engaging in debauchery. Friday had
been really low key (Sara and Alex both took Friday off of work, so we had
lunch at Founding Farmer’s and then walked around the city) and so we had a lot
of giggles to release.
Spending weekends with my best friends is such a weird mix of
being so utterly happy to be with them and grateful to have them in my life,
and feeling so sad that our lives are so far from one another. Twice yearly
visits aren’t enough.
If only DC and San Francisco were squished together…
We did decide
that when we “grow up,” we all have to buy a beach house together, so at least there's that.
