But I am very grateful for my best friend who I met in college. She went overseas in the military for a while and I wasnt sure if we would reconnect, but we did and now we see each other almost every month! <br /><br />I love these photos and Im glad you were able to reconnect with her and enjoy the time like you never lost each other. I always love the way you write and tell a story. <br /><br />PS were having a giveaway on the lifestyle blog! :) <br /><br />Enjoy the holiday!Dianahttp://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5901268365510893153.post-35263666489080410532011-09-01T16:06:20.475-07:002011-09-01T16:06:20.475-07:00my best friend and i are like that too! sometimes ...my best friend and i are like that too! sometimes months pass without us talking because life gets so busy and we go to different schools so our schedules don't always match, but when we do get to hang out it's like no time passed at all... it's awesome. :)<br /><br /><3, Mimi<br />http://whatmimiwrites.blogspot.com/Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00016998487501779622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5901268365510893153.post-19932558912185056102011-09-01T14:02:44.010-07:002011-09-01T14:02:44.010-07:00You know you have a special friendship when a lot ...You know you have a special friendship when a lot of time can pass, but when you meet up it is like no time has passed at all!

We'd met when i moved to SF from NYC 20 years ago, and we always get a good laugh at the fact that she was asked to do a "peer interview" with me, at my first high-tech start-up. Basically, she tells her higher-ups: "she'll be awesome! she's really fun and i want to be her friend and hang out with her". wow - how professional! I got the job, she got laid off a few months later, but we've been friends throughout many years & many jobs. she is my brain trust...for better or worse, she remembers everything i've done in the last 20 years, on what date, with whom, where, etc. This comes in quite handy when i don't recall if my 3rd kid was born on March 27th or 29th (27th?), or what year it was when i met my husband, and the name of the person who preceded him, what band played that time we....etc. but NOT so handy when she remembers the occasional darker tidbit. i must always keep Muir on my good side:-) we had a relaxing, decadent weekend in NYC in Feb. together, ending at the Spotted Pig in SOHO, and my next visit is coming soon.
