A friend who I haven't seen in, literally, 13 years visited me this weekend. I dropped her off at the airport 4 hours ago. I'm still trying to unwind from one of the most stressful, unpleasant expereinces of my life.
Time changes all things yet it always amazes me how it can change a person. She is literally an unfortunate victim of many circumstances but she has no right to make me feel unappreciated and filled with dis-ease in my own home. I'm glad she's gone. At least I can dispense with the fantasy of what our friendship once was once and for all. Will I continue to speak with her? Sure. Certainly not as intimately as in the past but, yes.
I'm still reeling...

Have you moved yet???
