Sunday

I had company yesterday. Teresa braved the traffic and came to the end of the earth to see me. It was very nice.

At one point she was sitting on the couch and I was on the floor and we were talking (and watching a movie - we're good at multi-tasking). I looked up at her and thought - how cool is this. She is HERE!

And I won't have the pleasure for long. In case you didn't know her house is up for sale. Yes, she's leaving me. I'm happy for her - but damn.....she's leaving me.

It's funny......I first noticed Teresa over at Blackfive's. She wrote the best comments. Pretty soon I'd see her other places, then I just flat out started looking for her. I remember when Matt announced that she had finally started her own blog. WooHoo. I KNEW she was gonna be wonderful.

She was one of my first commenters when I started my site. We began reading back and forth and then the emails started. Last year in May I decided that when I came to Chicago in June we HAD to meet up. (I tend to do that - just ask Harvey!) So we swapped phone numbers and started talking. By the time June came around it was like we were old friends. Now - a day doesn't go by that we don't chat at least a couple of minutes. It's one of my favorite parts of the day - well, except that my damn cell phone gets the worst signal ever. Everywhere.

Anyway - here we sat. In my postage stamp home. Watchin' movies and talking. It was a wonderful afternoon. Calm, entertaining and warm. It was an an afternoon with my friend.

Thanks for comin' Teresa. Next drive is on me!!!!!

It was great wasn't it. And unlike at the blog meets... we were actually in the same room and talked to each other. LOL.
