It's our last day in Columbia. We spent the weekend saying 'bye to friends in a series of events that felt like attending our own funerals. Despite my loud and overbearing personality, I really do hate being the center of attention. But being surrounded by the most interesting, kind, generous, funny and best-looking people (see left) in town made me marvel at my own good fortune.
I managed to get through the entire weekend in a buoyant mood, but I'm on the verge of dissolving into a weepy mess. Just looking at the dog this morning brought me to tears.
What a gift to have friends so precious to leave -- and to look forward to coming home to.
The best thing is that I get to take my most favorite one with me.
