When I met my new friend Judy here in Madison, it was the first time I had had one of those conversations with a new person (since I moved here) which promised a solid friendship to come. It was one of those delightful conversations where we continually riffed off of each other, finding things in common and finding each other interesting. I could probably have that conversation I mentioned last night about the importance of studying the Humanities with her. Maybe I’ll bring it up sometime soon.
Sounds delightful, Barbara.

You are very good at conversing, Ann.
As are you, my friend.
