i'm looking at old entries and i found something i wrote about you in 2007:

or what i anticipate will happen with snowy_owlet where she will move back to texas to be with her love and we can no longer grab lunch together, but i can keep up with her doings via LJ and know when she is headed to chicago to visit (which had better be something she's planning on doing!) and see her then.

i was writing about friendships of proximity vs friendships of longevity. more than 15 years--that went by quickly. and i miss having lunches with you!
