Somehow between college......when I got to live with, see, and talk to them every day, review every detail of every important and not-so-important topic, spend hours talking and dreaming of the future and thoroughly review each outfit before walking out the door....
and now.......
where days and months go by without being able to talk, and our visits together require long plane trips and quick weekends.....
we have not changed.
I spent a weekend in New Orleans with Jen, Ami and Shannon and we continued the conversation that seems to have started those years ago in college. Nothing and everything has changed in our worlds - there are now 5 children, 4 husbands, 7 houses, and a lot of years between us, but even though the topics may be a bit different, the immediate connection is the same.
We had fun in the French Quarter, went for a smooth, leisurely cruiser bike ride, ate some po'boys, dined with Emeril, shopped, took a ride on a tram, and voluteered in the 9th ward.
We left the weekend, thoroughly exhausted and thoroughly happy.
