Since we last spoke, lj folks, I have made quite a few changes in my life. The biggest would be quitting my job. I knew things were going to change this year, and they seem to be changing without any premeditation. Which is quite exciting.
I've already started job hunting, but am enjoying my unemployed life. Most of it I spend going for bike rides/walks, meeting up with friends and of course sitting on my arse in the air conditioning surfing the internet for hours on end.
But I wish to dedicate this post to the importance of friends. I realised that I do not have that close-knit social circle that most others have. Instead I have friends strewn across the entire social spectrum. Friends who I call when I want to go out dancing and talk about kisses. Friends I drink coffee or eat with, who like to discuss personal philosophies and tickle my brain. Friends who let me lean on them when I feel down and don't overwhelm me with opinionated advice. Friends who I have amazing adventures with, who's mind seems to be in tune with mine - and we just get eachother.

I love meeting new people, and being friends with people I didn't expect to be friends with. We might all spend too much time trying to form cliques and surround ourselves with like-minded people when what we really need is a friend from here, there and everywhere. So when you feel like being someone else you know just which friend to call.
