I had met this woman in Chicago thru a theatre company I was in. She was from Florida. We remained friends for years while I was in Chicago. After I moved to Los Angeles she moved there a few years later. We would run into each other from time to time out in LA. Years later we went out to dinner with a group of friends from Chicago. So this female friend of mine and I were talking about the differences between people in Chicago and people in LA, and she said it was much easier for her to have close friends in LA than in Chicago. I asked why is that? She said because you guys from Chicago still have all your friends from grade school and high school and I could never ever be in that group. I thought that was interesting, because I’m still very close with several friends I grew up with from grade school as well as high school. We still get together on a regular basis.
