Fun Visit with a Friend
Today a friend came to Naperville to walk around and see the town. It was fun because we got to go to Eggs, Inc. for a really nice breakfast, and their omelettes are really quite good. Then we just walked around, talking about the town and a lot of nothing. We stopped at Einstein Bros. Bagels and sat in the outdoor area - it was nice. Chatted about college, decisions, things.
Walked into a new outfitting shop next to Barnes and Noble, first time for me, and it was a lot like REI. Interesting. Fun to see things. We walked around more... down on the Riverwalk, and then up through the park. It was a nice time.
After that, we went to Home Depot and picked out some flowers and things for their patio. It was fun talking about planting, how many, what colors. It was just plain fun.
I had forgotten what fun with another person felt like. Bittersweet in many ways.
