A year ago, before Rosh Hashanah, HillelLady and I were not friends. We were working together and not getting along very well at all. It was pretty passive-aggressive, and it turns out most of it was because our boss was pitting us against each other. After a big bad conversation on Rosh Hashanah, that basically could have been the end of our friendship potential forever, we decided, eff this, we are going to be friends, we are going to make this work. We made a weekly date night where we decided we would not do work, but instead bond and hang out. We weren't going to schedule any programs for that night so that we could have some time as friends.
To be honest, I think our boss was freaked out when we told him about our plan to be friends.
The first date night we had was right around this time, and we went to a paint-your-own-pottery studio.
Well, I just so happen to be in Boston, where HillelLady now resides, and I just so happen to have a few hours free before Sukkot tomorrow. SO. We are going to a paint-your-own-pottery studio to make commemorative mugs. JewishGal & HillelLady: First Year Friend Anniversary.
We aren't friends by accident. We decided to be friends. And then we became friends. And now she is one of my bridesmaids!
