Lunch with Friends

Some friends from my freshman year in college are in town. Some of us got together for lunch today. Though FoxyJ is in Utah, this lunch wasn't with her. It's mostly the female friends that DH had through junior high and high school. It was really good to see them again. We've known each other for over 10 years now. It's interesting to see how much has changed and how much has stayed the same.

I'm not a terribly social person, so I don't have a lot of friends. I've never really been one to have lots and lots of friends. I usually have just a few good friends. Unfortunately, I've made some bad choices regarding those friends at times in the past. But this group and my roommates freshman and sophomore year in college have all been really good friends. It's funny that I met all of them within a year. Okay, so I'll go a year or more without talking to them, but I still consider them my friends.

Tomorrow I'm going to get a massage. Two friends of mine own the place. Again, I haven't talked to them in years. They are really friendly and social, unlike me. But I'll be glad to see them again -- and getting a massage isn't bad either. I've had an aweful lot of chest pain and I'm hoping they can relax it. My own paranoia makes me think that I'm having a heart attack with every twinge. But I just saw the doctor and she just laughed. She said that high cholesterol builds up over time, I wouldn't be having a heart attack now. I've had high cholesterol for a year and a half at most, because it was low when we took it June 2006.

So random post. But it was fun to get together with friends. I wish I could get together with friends more. I'm just not really very social though and am not good at arranging such things. I need to work on that.
