My Hands Are Cold

I love re-discovering things.

Small things, big things. Memory-things. The Stumble Button.

Today I discovered a friend I never knew I had. I mean, I'm friends with her and I know about her life and I enjoy her company, but I don't see her enough to call her a friend. As senior year progresses, I find such friends... people with whom I may not have spent as much time as I could have, but have always been there, off to the sidelines, just hanging around. Sometimes it's people in different friend circles, different grades, or people that I used to be friends with but hardly get to see now.

So we talked. We're very similar, and I didn't even know how much until today. I like her. She's funny, and genuine. I hope to spend more time with her, especially when I get a little more free time.

Tomorrow: Iowa City with my dad. It won't be that bad, I hope anyway, but it certainly won't be as much fun as it would if I were going up on my own... or with friends. Perhaps an unofficial college visit in the spring :). Maybe I can take it as an opportunity to just "bond" and "communicate" with him. We'll see how it goes.

By the wizzle, the title is from the song "Your Hands Are Cold" composed by Jean-Yves Thibaudet for the movie Pride and Prejudice (the newer one with Kierra Knightly). Mmm... chick flicks.
