I spent a really good night out with these three. Funny how growing up with someone or someones can you make downright complacent with keeping up a friendship. Estrangement happens with the ones you're most familiar with, no? (Actually, I'm not really sure, but that sounded appropriately profound). Quite frankly, keeping up with each other isn't something we do. I guess knowing each others' ins and outs over the years makes you think you have leeway to take them for granted a bit (hope that's not what my marriage turns out to be).
Last night was weirdly liberating. We had dinner and dessert and drove around LA--felt like high school all over again, and I actually mean that in a good way. As if we weren't all graduating college in a month or two, as if Mich didn't just have her pharm school interview that afternoon, as if we hadn't grown up. And Mich went ape on everyone when she was giving directions ("YO, GIRL. 110 NORTH.") and I even said "hecka" for the first time in my life.
But I guess we've already been through a lot with each other.
