A Visitor

Tuesday night, really Wednesday at 1am, one of my best friends in the world came to visit. Noelani, a close friend from college had some time off, so she and her boyfriend flew out to see Colorado. She’s one of those rare friends with whom you feel you can do anything or nothing, but you know it will be fun. We can stay up late giggling about nothing over a bowl of pudding. I can tell her anything without fear of being judged or criticized or dismissed. Thought of these next four days, with nothing specific planned, still make me giddy with excitement. It almost feels like getting to hang out with Santa Claus for a few days. It’s that good.
