3 hours and 12 minutes

Last night at this time I was two hours into what felt like 10 minutes of a phone call.
It's unavoidable when friends hole up in the one part of the house where no one will look for you, the laundry room, and place their attention on one another.

The conversational lasted a total of 3 hours and 12 minutes. It is only because I noted the time did we part ways. We still had hours more to say.

When I ended the call not a tooth was hiding behind the smile I wore.... Sometimes laughter ...friendship.... and years of memories are all you need to be rejuvenated.

If you could talk to someone for three hours who would it be?

This post was written for Monday night. I am a day behind because I was trying to get rid of a virus on the computer... Sigh!

I love the way that happens with my best friends. I'm normally someone who hates talking on the phone but a few of my friends make that hate turn to love. :)

My mom is probably the only person I could easily talk to for that long. We just never seem to run out of things to say.

My husband. We never get a chance to talk like that anymore.

Through the magic of Facebook that has happened quite a bit over the last couple of years....reconnecting with old friends over the telephone= hours of catching up :)

That is an unbelievably long time! Maybe my college roommate.

I used to talk to my mom on the phone for hours. We never ran out of things to tell each other or talk about. She's been gone now for 5 years and I really really REALLY miss talking to her.
