In the books. It was a real boring one at that though. All my buddies were working while I was off work... and while I was at work they weren't.... just works that way sometimes.
I spent Saturday and Sunday in Kent for "New Hire Orientation" for Home Depot. It was actually not too bad. There were some cool people in the class with me. Alot of younger people, some cool older folks too. Unfortunately I had to be there at 8a.m. both days.... and it went till 4 yesterday and 3:30 today... just for orientation! But, I got paid for it, so it's all good. Had to drive about 100 miles a day though round trip. Not too down with that. My mom let me drive her car down there today though, seeing as how she doesn't have to pay for gas cuz her fucking company gives her a credit card for it, and pays for her car payment for an Infiniti QX4.... nice huh? Wish I had that.
Anywho, it seems as though alot of the friends that have complained about not being able to hang out with me alot in the recent months, aren't doing anything about it. I have been making an effort to hang out with some of them, but everytime, there seems to be some reason why I can't come over or they are busy or I just never get called back... and I dunno what I did to deserve that, except maybe just being gone for too long.
This whole thing that I had with Tara really ruined alot of my relationships with old friends of mine I think. Very few of them were ok with her at all, and they did'nt come around me because of that very reason. Derek was a factor in that as well. I dunno, I can't really say I can blame them, it just hurts.
Some people have changed too much, and I just don't even really know them anymore. It's really sad to me, that I have been out of their lives for such a while that we don't really know how to talk to each other anymore. I lost touch with one girl that I loved being around and wished I still had as a friend, and now she doesn't even return my calls.
All in all, it's just kinda depressing.... but I think I am just in a shitty mood cuz I havn't done anything all weekend. Maybe I just need to get out there more than I even am now, and try and make some more new friends.
Lately I have been trying that alot more, making new friends, but to no avail as of yet.
It feels as though I put all my marbles into two baskets with Derek and Tara, and since both of those baskets shattered and turned into bitches, all my marbles are scattered everywhere without any baskets in sight... you get what I am trying to say...??...??
Anywho, I am rambling, and this is getting really long.... hopefully this is just me thinking too much.
Good Evening,
Dustin Thomas
