Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Moment | Stevie Smart

"Well, I really should go," I said for the fifth or sixth time. Every time, the conversation had just kept going. There was so much to catch up on, so much had changed in both of our lives. "Yeah, I have to go to work tomorrow morning," she admitted, "but I'll call you. We say that every time, but I really will call you, like Satruday or something." "Yeah, we need to keep in touch," I said. The time approached one in the morning when we finally said goodbye. Wow, things have changed so much, but not between us. We could still stay up talking just like we used to do at our sleepovers. It had been months since I had talked to her, but we would never be strangers. All of the years we spent growing up together could not be erased by our lives going separate ways, and it could all be remembered, and renewed, in one conversation over the phone.
