When I was back in Singapore last year, I spied Natalie behind the pharmacy counter at a drugstore. We exchanged emails.
Back in junior college, we were in the canoeing/db team together. Those were happy, splashy, fit days of abs and biceps.
Now that Natalie is in California waiting to start on her new job, she comes to stay with me for a week while Scott is away diving in the Philippines. Why has he gone diving without me, I'm asked. I can drive, and I have the car and my credit card - I'll be fine, I say ;)
Me and my partner-in-crime, we tore through town and raided the malls, combed through the bargains and rung up the register with a vengeance. We huffed and puffed up the mountains, lamenting our soft thighs and weak lungs. We more happily padded barefoot down the beaches and sunned ourselves silly. We yakked through it all and late into the night til we fell asleep.
We had many shared and unshared memories to talk about, more than 10 years of catching up to do. It was all very comforting and very heart-warming and I couldn't have asked for better company.
Thanks Natalie! I'm so glad you came to visit! :D
