Danny and Peter came over last night. We played Life with Nate. It was fun. They are the greatest of friends. We have a long history together.
My parents went to a funeral and came back to say they saw Jason and Christi. They both want me to write them and Christi said I should come to her New Year’s Eve party on Tuesday. If I remember correctly, I stopped by there last year after church on New Year’s Eve. How fitting that the first and last minutes of 1996 would be spent with Christi.
Mom and Nate and I went shopping in Durham after I got off work. I bought the That Thing You Do soundtrack. Before we left for Durham though, we stopped by Aunt Sis’s house on the outskirts of Siler City. Her place is near where we used to live when I was in elementary school. As I walked through the front door, I realized it had been several years since I stepped foot in that house. What a playground that area used to be for me, as well as for Danny and Peter. We explored those woods between our houses like crazy. Kevin and I even got lost once and Henry got so mad at us.
Wow, I’ve known Danny and Peter for 14 years. I didn’t know it was possible to know someone for that long.
Well, three days remain. What will 1997 bring?
