A Life Ordinary

I had a wonderfully pleasant evening last night, hanging out with Emily, who is quite possibly my oldest friend from home. When I first moved to this town in the sixth grade, she was assigned to be my friend by Ms. Brady. We both resented each other for the assignment at first, but then grew to be good friends. Last night, we went out to see The Waitress, a most enjoyable chick flick, and afterwards, were hungry for pie. Unfortunately, we live in the type of town where the Starbucks is closed by 9:30pm, along with anywhere else that might serve pie or tea. So we went over her house, had tea, and sat around the dining room table talking with the family, trying to catch up about our friends but realizing that we both suck at keeping in touch, and admiring her dad's origami pieces. It was a different type of hanging out and going out than what we had both pictured, but the mango black tea was lovely, the conversations great, and her father does magic with origami. I hope you have evenings like that, too.
