Dana and I grew up across the street from each other. She is married and has an adorable 2 year old son. They still live across the street from my parents but we don't see each other nearly as often as we should. We worked together for over 6 years and it was so nice having someone in the office who knew me so well. I miss that - but not that job. Dana's been through a lot in her life - her mom died very unexpectedly when Dana was in 6th grade and that made a huge impact on her life - as you can imagine. She's quirky, but I love her.
Heather and I took tap and ballet together when we were 3-4 years old and have been friends ever since. She moved to Boston for college, then moved home for a little while before moving back to the Boston area. She got married two years ago and has a precious 9 month old daughter. She had taken the train from Boston to Atlanta for her grandmother's 90th birthday. I was at her wedding two years ago, her baby shower last year, and then dinner last night - all of which took place in the spring. Heather is a free spirit and I love that about her.
Sometimes, it's nice to just be around people who "get" you.
