I don’t write journal entries very often, but I enjoy writing and want the excuse right now. Alex Hurst came over to hang out today! He’s actually been in the area for months now. It was great to see him! It’s probably been about two years since I’d seen him, and we haven’t talked regularly since high school. It’s sure weird how things change. I can’t believe he’s getting married soon!
Anyways, we caught up over lunch at Del Taco and then just hung out at my place. I actually cleaned my room a bit so I can have people over (not that anyone really comes over anyways). So! He brought a six-pack of beer and we caught up more before going on a walk to climb a hill near my house. I’ve been near it many times but never thought to visit it. It offered a great view, and I took a bunch of lousy iPhone-quality photos! Then we went off to Costco with gem and Antonio. It seemed like a fail mission to me. We got ibuprofen, spinach, Dr. Pepper, and mushrooms. I’m sure the mushrooms and spinach will end in something good, but it seems boring right now. Afterwards we ate at Chick-fil-A before returning home where Alex spend the remainder of the night playing Portal. I read Daredevil thanks to Kyle.
It was great reconnecting with someone to whom I was very close at one time. Hopefully I’ll see more of him and Darnell in the future.
