I miss my friends! I miss them terribly. I got a call tonight from my dear friend Nathan, who I haven't had the chance to talk to for any real length of time in so long. Nathan's my great friend whose wedding I participated in a year ago in Savannah, Georgia. Below is a picture from that wedding of us and his wife Julia:


Anyway, I miss my friends. Talking with him tonight was really nice and brought back memories and old times. I don't get to hang with any of my Washington, DC friends anymore. It's like this whole world of people that I'm very close to and yet so far away from. When does close friendship go from everyday hanging, chatting, dinners and movies every weeknight and weekend, to months/years going by and you just don't have it as a priority to pick up the phone anymore and call? There's so many people in DC, New Jersey, Missouri, and throughout the country (and world for that matter) that I miss and wish I could chat up and hang and watch a movie with and give a hug to and make funny jokes with and not have it be just for a short vacation or a special trip for, but just our everyday life we used to have in that time and place when we were closer, physically and mentally. Why do we have to be so far apart?
