Rare Friendship

Hey hey! How is everyone?

I'm in a great humour (again!). I was talking to a friend of mine who I hadn't heard from for absolutely ages last night and it was great fun just to catch up. Now I know that last line makes me sound like a girl, but it just was. He went to Portugal when he left school and I hadn't heard from him for the last three years. Then yesterday evening my mobile started buzzing and there he was on the other end of the line! He was back in Ireland for a few days and he wanted to meet up. Unfortunately I'm living in Waterford now (I used to live in Wexford. Find an atlas!) so we just stayed chatting on the phone for ages!

Afterwards it got me thinking about friendship and what it means. My friendship with him, while I wouldn't call it particularly close or anything, was always a fun one. And it lasted despite such a long gap. I know a lot of people now who I would consider friends, but I don't know if many of them would take time out to find me after three years.

Now reading back over this post I realise that some people may... erm... question my sexuality so to speak ;), but to be honest it doesn't bother me! I was delighted to hear from my friend again and I thought I'd share some of my happiness with the world!

Anyways, keep smiling!

Oh BTW if anyone is wondering, I AM straight and have a girlfriend of eight months! :-p
