shrimp with cashew nuts

last night was 100% female bonding at its best....three 20-something women eating chinese food and talking about past relationship woes, a pointless midnight run to the no-longer-open-till-all-hours krispy kreme, much laughter and making of merry....

i slept in until about 11 this morning, showered, dressed, and then francie and i copped a squat and chatted for a couple of hours. she is currently showering so we can 'get a move on', as it were....i'm hoping for a trip to the art store so that she can procure some watercolor blocks and then perhaps some sketching and/or painting back at home later on....

good friends are hard to find. i'm really blessed to have a small collection of them. and it doesn't seem to matter how much time has passed since we've spent time together; we can ALWAYS pick up right where we left off, grab some coffee, and figure a few things out about this crazy world and this even crazier life....
