My friend moved from the Hollywood Hills to the beach. And, I swear, it feels like she moved to the east coast.

 

I was so used to seeing her on a regular basis. She could pop in on me. I could pop in on her. We hiked together. We had coffee together. We got together for no good reason. I was spoiled, and it was wonderful.

 

Now it’s all different. Different isn’t necessarily bad. It just takes some getting used to. And I can’t truly complain about her moving, as she really is a beach girl at heart. The area suits her and I think it makes her happy. And I ask you: who doesn’t want their friends to be happy?

 

As for me, right now I feel a little like “Karen” from Will and Grace, after “Grace” moved from Manhattan to Brooklyn. I remember “Karen” saying she would, of course, visit “Grace” in her new borough. Then “Karen” added, “I’m gonna use my miles!”

 

I’m not sure how I’m gonna work it, but I do miss my friend. Maybe I can use my miles…
