i won’t drown in the ocean

I had the best weekend. The way friendship can wrap you up and make you feel whole again. The way you can say and do anything. And laughter. The laughter is still ringing in my ears and making me happy.
My friend christle and i wound our way down to the city to meet up with andrea and a friend of hers for an amazing dinner. We talked and ate and ate some more and did it all with wine pairings and muscat and herbal tobacco. It was decadent and silly. Andrea and i have been friends in the computer for years, but have never met in person though all signs pointed to us being fast friends. And we were.
After dinner we wandered over to the theatre to see band of horses who i fully admit to being my biggest crush in the world. They are so lovely and fill my heart with happiness every single time i see them live.

Andrea and i hung out in the lobby during the first band and spoke of love and loss and new happiness that is coming and is here.
As christle and i wound our way back up the highway i laughed and told her "this is what i do and i'm going to do it for you." And i put fleetwood mac "rumours" on and sung my heart out all the way home. It was so silly and funny and i did it unabashedly. because some things you can do in front of friends.
