cold houses
Last week Maud visited, and though she left earlier than I wish she did (if it was up to me, she'd never have to leave and she could just be my sister :)) it was so much fun to see her again, I can't tell you how much I miss her when she's not here. She's like that one person you meet and there's just an instant connection, and though distance is powerful, for once it seems like it's a friendship that will survive it. I'm sorry I'm rambling, I just didn't realize how much this friendship meant to me until she left all of a sudden, and it felt like there was a part of me missing. I've been numb the whole day, because I didn't introduce her to the wonderful world of Latin yet, because we didn't talk about so many things, but well, she'll be back, and there will be plenty of memories left to create.
