Old Ties

Part of a text message exchange with my friend Estela went on like this:

Este: "We should meet up. I need to touch base with old friends. Feel old and tired."

Me: "There you go again, with your depressing mood swings."

Este: "I can't help it. Circumstances in my life are really depressing."

Me: "Then watch 'The Sound of Music', Oprah or read Kahlil Gibran."

Este: "I was the Drama Guild President you know, which makes me a drama queen for life!" *^&%$@#&

Me: "I was the Rondalla club Veep, so let's color your gloom with bright sounds."

*now start imagining that you're listening to rondalla music, preferably "Mabuhay"*

And then she called me up and we made plans to meet up when she gets back from the highlands.
