Wishing for some magic

The first installment of summer fling meet the friends went reasonably well.

(Why yes. We do have some gossip to catch up on. Let's set up a skype date, shall we? Warning, I'm out of town this weekend.)

Everyone seemed to like everyone else. Which made me realize how incredibly much I value some people's input.

S.F. commented that amid his moves and not knowing where home was anymore he doesn't feel like he has the strong friendships as much right now. I looked back up at my apartment thinking through the past five to seven years.

Those friends are quality. We're keeping in touch--no matter where our lives take us. I mean, I moved to the country and S. was still one of my biggest supports. And A. got extended debriefs when I saw her. Now she's in another country, and, even if we don't talk as often as we should, she's someone I trust with stories and secrets. And the two of them have been supports for each other as well.

I thought back to our dinner. How fun it was to have A. with me to team up when teasing S. (Sorry. It's true. :) How comfortable it was being with them.

I'm not sure how to make that happen. A bit of bonding experiences. Mixed with time. Probably a pinch of magic.

Kinda hope this fling has some magic in it too.
