i would love nearly any 30+ lady as a friend, or someone she knows at her publishing firm. i am super not picky about faces! i could also use a cousin she doesn't know very well -- their mothers were sisters and had a tumultuous relationship with their grandmother which led to them being estranged and their kids being estranged from each other as well, and now that rachel lives in the city, they're sort of just getting to know each other as adults.
