Despite an unplanned detour up past Syracuse on I-81 (because of missing the exit to NY-79), Susan arrived safely at my apartment on Friday night. We got the air mattress set up, chatted for about half an hour, and then went to bed because we had a full day planned for Saturday.
( cut for tl;dr )
And that was my weekend with Susan. :-)
She and I have technically known each other since we were very small -- we were in the same Brownie and then Girl Scout troop -- but we didn't become friends until 7th grade, at which point we were suddenly in the same school. So that makes nineteen and a half years of friendship. *blinks* Neither of us is particularly good at telephones, but we make an effort to call every couple weeks because friendships need maintenance and this one is important to both of us, even if we rarely meet in person anymore.
