Dawn's Digression.

Okay, I actually bit off a nail. What can I say?

I had a darn good night. Except that my cats keep sniffing at me because I cheated on them. Tonight I went to Rachel and Suzy's.

I desperately needed somewhere to go tonight. I couldn't face just coming home. I had a bit of a hard day, and I have a bit of stress that is building up. This too shall pass, but in the meantime, I needed an outlet. A~, I started looking through the phone book on my cell phone, and I realized the only person I even wanted to call was Rachel. So, I stalked her until she got home from work. Being the good friend she is, she called me back and I invited myself over for dinner. (That's the cool thing about old friends...you don't have to wait for the invite. When she called, I said something like, "Hey, what's up? What are you doing with me tonight?"

So, I hung out with Rach and Suzy tonight. I've been thinking about them quite a bit lately, and I'm afraid I got a bit teary with Rach while Suzy was on the phone. I don't want to share all of the moment, but I thanked Rachel for her friendship, for not letting anything that came between us effect it, and for Suzy, who I now consider a friend. I even cried. Sad, I know. I am such a lucky person, though, and I know this. Why shouldn't Rach know how much I appreciate her? Not only is Rachel my best friend, but she has given me the gift of Suzy. I am so glad My Rachel found her Suzy. Honestly and truly I am. And I am so happy to have them both in my life. And yet even more happy that the one person I thought I could always count on is, in fact, that person. I am a lucky, lucky gal. That indeed.
