Maintaining connections

My friends came over and we had a nice day although once again I accomplished nothing in the house. We sat around and talked throughout the day.

An associate of the realtor came by and looked around the apartment. I didn't have a problem with that, buuuut...the guy that came by gave off a somewhat perky vibe. Similar to that of a used car salesman. I'm guessing this guy will be the one to sell the place. Better to have them on my side than the other.

My buds and I went out to dinner to a local restaurant I am particularly fond of. It's elegant but non-pretentious so I didn't feel uncomfortable stepping into the place in shorts without a reservation. We were promptly seated and enjoyed a good meal, my friends had dessert but I just had coffee since I didn't want to overdo my sugar intake, it's easy to forget I'm diabetic.

We went back to my place where we had meaningless conversations about baseball, animation, movies and travel and then the went home. Overall it was probably the most adult conversation we've ever had and I'm the youngest of the three with the oldest approaching 50.

It's strange how people who have known each other for so long and haven't spoken to each other in quite some time can just pick up as if no time has passed. Although we can see a change in each of us we were still close to being the same as we were 30 years ago. Those are things you don't get often.
