When Charlie is gone I seem to get so much done. So weird, isn't it?
OK so I think I may have tracked down my college friend Sara. I am so excited! I wrote her an email via Classmates.com but I am not sure how that thing works. So I am not sure she will get it. I hope she does, I miss her so much! I want to hear about everything that has been going on with her. I don't know if you remember that whole story. She moved, I moved, she left me a message, I left her one, she moved, and we just totally lost each other. So I am hoping and hoping that she gets that message. I would love to see her!

I don't think I told anyone about my childhood friend Jani. I mean, I remember blogging about her and how sad it was that I lost touch with her. It was obviously more sad for me than her. She grew up in the same house and had the same friends forever. I on the other hand moved place to place and any connection I made with anyone as a child was lost when we moved. Remember, no internet back then. So I always held my friendship with Jani near and dear to me. She did not though. So let me go back and tell the whole story.
In 1989 when I was at NAU, I called Jani because I was coming out for a visit. I was staying with Mrs. T, my grandmothers friend and next door neighbor while she was alive. I have known Mr. & Mrs. T my whole life. Anyway, Jani was like "yea, call me we will do lunch" I said "great, I will" So I get there and we make plans. That morning she cancels and remakes them for the following day. Fine with me. That day she calls and cancels. Same thing for the next day and it was at that point I lost my mind. I said "Jani, I don't come out often and I am only here for 3 days. I really wanted to get together and catch up but I can see that is not going to happen and that is really sad." She said "well next time you come into town, let me know and we will get together" I never called and frankly it would not have been worth it. Now remember I was 22 and we had known each other since we were born. I was pretty heartbroken. Mrs. T never liked how Jani treated me. I never thought it was too bad and I think it was because I held that friendship so dear to me. It was the only consistent friend I had.

So....about a year ago my Uncle Bob tells me he ran into Jani and he got her email address. So I wrote her. I figured she must have changed. HA! Nope! Same flakey Jani as ever. She is married and has a 3 year old son. She was in the midst of a divorce though. She sent a photo and she was 
prettier now than she ever was. I was happy for her because she was always very insecure about herself and her looks which is partially why she kept cancelling plans on me. She had a boyfriend. Yup, she's that kind of girl. Totally forgets her friends when a guy comes around. I kept wrote her a few times and then she just never answered me. Same Jani as ever. I have to wonder if she has any friends to this day. Her son is totally adorable. She must love him to pieces.

Ugh, I have to wait until I am 6 months out of chemo. Of course! So I read online that chemo causes facial hair. Of course it does! Then I am on these hormone suppressants too. I figure I could go as Santa this year at Christmas. Annoying!
