And talk of poems and prayers and promises, things that we believe in...
I just have to say that Christa and Megan are two of the most wonderful women I know, shoot, most wonderful women in the world. Perhaps all of history. Yes, undoubtedly so.
I've been here in Colorado for less than a week, but it feels like so much longer - in a good way. Two nights ago Megan and I went to Boulder on a whim when we were uninspired by the dining choices around us. It's such a great town, I love spur of the moment trips, and I am so happy to have Megan who appreciates and initiates random, let's-see-where-life-takes-us adventures. I love the way Megan asks questions about what is going on in your life. Not just "how are you?" but specific, thoughtful questions that show she cares. We've had some great conversation about God and theology, boys and friends, and working and coping methods, and I LOVE her so much. I think I might be a "crazy liberal" myself by the time Dec 4th rolls around. Well, at least a little less Republican. She and Christa have given me a book list already to read while I am here, too. I am so glad for intelligent friends!
My mom said on the phone the other day that Christa and I are kindred spirits. I love that idea but think in reality I am a very pale shadow of Christa. I can cook....Christa can make magic. I have lots of artistic ideas, but Christa's craft room is full of completed examples of what she's made after bouncing from bed at 7 am when she doesn't have to work until 3. I am thoroughly impressed. We've had such a great time these past few days, scouring thrift stores for finds we can remake into funky but fashionable clothes, weaving sticks into a Thanksgiving centerpiece, and just having long overdue catch-up time. I can't believe I haven't spent much time with her since she's graduated - I have missed her so much and she is FANTASTIC. I mean, she took me to a depression glass store....how could I NOT adore her?
Add to this the fact that I am in gorgeous, amazing Colorado, and you have one VERY happy Tiffany. Megan told me to look into changing my return ticket to one later in December. The only thing bad about that is that if I do, I may just never go home!

well said.
"She and Christa have given me a book list already to read while I am here, too."
Indoctrinating you with literature already? This sounds like a cult. Get out now!
"...scouring thrift stores for finds we can remake into funky but fashionable clothes, weaving sticks into a Thanksgiving centerpiece,..."
Tiff, I think we need to have a talk about drugs.
I'm glad to hear you are doing well (to put it mildly). I keep checking my mailbox for that snow...... not so much as a flake yet.
You quoted JOHN DENVER!!!!!
GET A LIFE!!!!
LOVE YA,
GARE
