Written Whispers

Ah, so as you know (or don’t) I spent last Thursday with my long lost (3 years) buddies Ni and Ju. We had a wonderful time and the only reason I haven’t written a full post dripping with hyper spazticness all about it is because the recent reunion gave me some things to think about which are still cooking inside my head- all the base ingredients are there but I need to wait a little bit for the chemistry to kick them and turn it all into one solid thought I can better grasp.

In the mean time though I’d love share my beautiful moment of stupidity. :) There are very few people I can let my guard down around so despite how flighty it made me look it also makes me happy. It doesn’t hurt that they’re also pretty used to my odd little flighty moments.

Okay, so we Ju and I were in the supermarket looking for Ni who’d gone on ahead of us. As two relatively short attention-span-lacking people Ni has a much better chance of finding us than we of her but we did try.

Trying lasted all of two minutes before Ju pulled out her cell and started texting Ni to let her know we were looking for her, explaining to me it’s their way of playing marco polo (they’re so cute together :) ). I laughed and we waited a bit for a response… it didn’t come.

After a moment Ju said Ni must have left her cell phone in the car.

Not a second after Ju had told me that, still holding her cell phone out in front of her, I very enthusiastically started going through my purse saying “Oh, hold on. Let me get mine and you can try to call her on that.”

…

Oh, yes. I totally said that. Ju was laughing for a good ten seconds before I’d figured out what I’d said and just what was wrong with it. :) I could have slapped myself in the head, lol, but it made me laugh too so it’s all good.

Mahaps it’s because I’m one of the few cell phone owners left on this continent who doesn’t text?

More likely it was because I was so spazzy, lol, but in that moment I have to admit it felt like all of us had never been apart. Like it was just another day and I’d never gone back into foster care. :) I can’t deny that I yearn for those days but I’m also looking forward to the days ahead of us- and all the dorky moments that come with them. :)

I have another wacky little friendship story to share but I want to keep this post short so I’ll go ahead and make another one. :)
