what a bizarre day this is turning out to be. i woke up after having some strange dreams about someone i haven't talked to in a long time. why people suddenly appear in my dreams, i'll never know. i decided to be bold this morning and call him. the number for his cell wasn't right and when i called his office, his assistant said he hadn't come in yet. i sent him an email saying i called. i didn't think i would hear back from him so soon, but he emailed back minutes later saying he was in so i called again.

just hearing his voice brought back so many memories. i was all nervous and twittery on the phone. it was so silly! he said it was strange that i had called as well because he was also thinking of me this morning. i know he wasn't just saying that, either, as that's not something he does. he's quite upfront and honest with things. he doesn't say things just to get a reaction, either. we chatted for a bit and now i know i will be thinking of him for a while. the memories have just been flooding back in.

i've been feeling pretty nostalgic lately. i've been catching up with a bunch of friends that i haven't spoken to in a while. maybe it's the holidays or maybe i'm just growing older and want to keep those who are near and dear to my heart close by for all times.

just this week i got back in touch with a girlfriend i hadn't spoken to in about a year due to uber busy schedules for both of us. she and i met back at a convention in the midst of my politcal heyday and i ended up taking her position at a firm as she moved on to bigger and better things with the governor. i'm really excited to be back in touch with her on a more regular basis now and we are planning on getting together soon.

i sent off two packages yesterday to girlfriends for some early holiday cheer. i love sending the random package almost more than i enjoy receiving a random package. :)

i can't believe next week is already thanksgiving. i'm so glad that hubby and i are going out of town, though. it's been so long since we've been anywhere. here is where we're staying and i can't wait!
