For British Eyes Only

So originally this post was going to be about the British investment banker L and I flirted with at a singles event at the MFA on Friday followed by a wrap-up on the book launch party (to which I contributed an article) held this evening at the British consulate office.

But instead it's a quick post to say yay! Because when I walked into the foyer, out came a dear, dear friend who is one of my three West Coast readers and who is married to the editor of the book I wrote for. So it was lots of hugging and smiling and then some serious catching up. She and I have gone through some similar stuff in life and are very alike and understand each other immediately. I actually had a dream about her last night where we were having dinner together, and tonight we did.

I bypassed the brother of a movie star to visit with her and I'd bypass an actual movie star to do so. We talked, and ate fish, and parted ways much too soon. I miss her already.
