Dumb Arguments Can Take Forever to Resolve

December 18, 2008 12:07 AM

got a call today from a friend I hadn't spoken to in something like three years. It was nice. We spent a lot of time catching up and remembering lots of things we all did in college. And we planned some new adventures--she's hopefully gonna come visit me early in the new year.

We hadn't spoken for, uh, dumb reasons. But it's all blood under the whatsit or whatever. The fact of the matter is that even when we weren't speaking, I knew we'd speak again sometime. And we did. And it was good.

It's nice to know that some of the connections you've made with people can survive time, distance, anger, and growth.

That's cool. I recently called two people I used to be friends with but hadn't talked to in forever, to see if we could reconnect. One I just fell out of touch with after she moved away and had a baby last year; the other I was best friends with for years, until we had a falling out several years ago; it's funny, the reasons for the falling out become more and more vague as time goes by. At any rate, I know it was completely out of the blue for both, but I just decided last week one day that I would give it a try, reconnecting with both. I ended up getting voice mail both times; left both of them messages, which I hope were good messages, kind of long messages, saying how I'd like to catch up sometime and inviting either a call back or an email. I haven't heard back from either one. It's nice to hear that your re-connection with your friend worked though; maybe one of mine will too, one day, given a little more time.
