Our longtime friend called after learning of Lynn's pottery show at Gallery Q and said she would like to attend the reception last Thursday night. She came and it was great to see her and talk together. She is a death and grief counselor and has interesting insights into the business of leaving life or having someone close leaving. She stayed until noon today.
Often, a longtime friend is a living piece of one's own history. Remember that time when…. We do remember and we have memorable times in common and other memorable times to tell about.
This friend is a sensitive person and it was fun to sit through the first episode of "Extraordinary Attorney Woo" with her. Even though we have been watching the program on Netflix for a month, that first episode still brought tears to my eyes. Likewise, we played the first episode of "Jane, the Virgin", also on Netflix for her. I think both programs are excellent and we may watch all 100 episodes of Jane a 2nd time. If by "virgin" one means a person who has not experienced sexual congress, Jane is a virgin. However, Jane is a mother since, to her deep surprise, she is pregnant since she was artificially inseminated because of a mix-up the stressed gynecologist made about which patient was there for a pap smear and which for an insemination. This show is based on a very popular show from Venezuela, I understand.
