I'm sad this evening.
Earlier today, a friend . . . a newish friend but one with some real potential . . . called to say she'd taken a job far away and will be moving this summer.
I've known this person for a few years, but only in the last several months have we really had the chance to socialize. Now I feel as if I'm losing a really good friend. I suspect that the friendship is fragile and new enough that we won't necessarily take the time to keep in touch beyond the first several months.
It's so much harder to make friends when you aren't thrown into large groups of humans/critters who are of similar age, background, or interest. I think it hurts more to lose them too.
Sigh.

I remember how I felt watching Barbie back out of my driveway and move away. I had only known her a few months too, but I loved her so. But look at how that worked out! There is hope.....
