There are few things better than an evening with friends.
I had the great fortune to go to a college where I met so many good people and made so many good friends that I don't know if life can get any better than that. But college ended (as it always does) and the lot of us have scattered across several states and it's rather rare for us to see each other anymore--we who had been so close and practically inseparable.
But what is taken away is occasionally given back--even if it's just for a short while. So I was able to spend this evening with three very good friends from my college days; talking and laughing and playing games and generally behaving as if no time at all had passed since we saw each other last. It didn't matter that our lives had moved on in different directions and with varying successes. We were still friends, and that's all that mattered.
And I almost won our game of Risk. Boo-yah!
