The Highlight of My Day

So it's Thursday. No big shakes. Got up, went to work, came home, etc.

But the highlight of my day was having dinner with my friend Amanda. We had tried to set up a meet time for the past two weeks, as I had Amanda's pillow. Why, you ask? Well, there was a drunken girls' night a few weeks ago, and among many other things left behind (my dignity, some of that night's dinner, etc.) was Amanda's favorite pillow. And we all know what it's like to miss your favorite sleepy time friend.

Anyway, as Amanda & I chatted and had dinner, I really was touched by the fact that we've been friends now for 10 years. And I have 2 other friends who fall in that same category. How cool is it to have such great girlfriends that we've survived a DECADE in each other's very different lives?! I think it's pretty awesome.

I remember my grandma telling me something very important once. "Di," she said, "always keep your girlfriends as number one. Boys come and go, but girlfriends...they stick." Grandma was right.
