It has been WONDERFUL to see her.  In many ways it feels like she never left, because it has been so comfortable and easy to fall back into step and conversation.  Saturday night we had a fondue party at my apartment for the extended cluster of friends who all wanted to see Ingrid while she was in town.  It was a enormously fun evening (cheese, chocolate and a round of “Celebrity” never fail to delight) and made up for the decidedly lackluster New Year’s Eve we ended up having.  We went to the same party we had gone to last year, but several people were absent (Cindy, Andrea and Una were particularly missed), as well as some essential party energy.

I truly hope she finds peace and happiness in her new life ventures. She's a strong soul and will succeed no doubt. I regret the way our relationship ended, but only hope and pray that she is happy.

It's so hard to see someone you love so much move far away. My best friend moved from Washington, DC (a mere three hour drive) to San Francisco. I hate it. :(
