How to stay in touch

You know that thing where you try to stay in touch with someone and you both have good intentions but life gets in the way and you just never do get together? Well, my friend Jo and I decided earlier this year that we need to see each other at least every other month or so and so when we do get together we pick a date at random for the next time. If it doesn't work out we then pick a new one but that is more effective than trying to remember to call. This works great and she just left after a lovely time.
