Everwhere is walking distance if you have the time

Oh, side thing. And it's funny. After seeing church_31 last night, she texted me today. She hadn't done that since July when she shot me down -- it ended on good terms. So we exchanged several texts and I called her and we talked for 30 minutes.

She had another relationship go south and this time it cost her. She rented out her house to move in with her boyfriend -- she didn't want to, but he put the full court press on and she's going back to school and struggling financially -- then she discovered he was playing around on her. So now she's living with her parents.

Sigh.

I really like this girl, but I know -- or doubt her interest in me will change. That's disappointing but OK. I'd rather have her in my life as a friend than not be in it.

She's the type of person though I would like to be with eventually. She has excellent parents and lots of faith. Hurdles come along, stuff that would knock me for a loop, and she just motors on trusting that there's a plan.

I really want to be more like her. And talking to her got me out of my own head for a while.
