Second chances- for or against for the_bigshow

For them, definitely. In fact I’m in favour of second, third, forth, fifth and sixth chances actually, which I suppose explains a lot about how my friends treat me. It’s like I find it impossible to hate anyone no matter what they do to me, if you don’t like someone it’s better to just forget about them, not waste your time hating them, because hate does no one any good, it’s just a total waste of time. Anyway take Michelle, she’s my best friend yeah? But she thought it was okay to ask me to sleep with Sid as a favour to her, and because I’m so used to that kind of thing I did it (agreed I mean, not sleep with him) and then she calls me crazy and it’s fine because she was half asleep and I suppose I sort of am, so it’s like what’s the point in holding at all against her? I have few enough friends as it is without losing the ones I do have.

Then there’s Sid of course, I tried to kill myself because of him, I loved him so much that I was willing to just sit there while he went on and on about Michelle and how wonderful she was and wait until he worked out the fact Michelle loved Tony and not him and that I was there ready and willing to be with him when he did. He stood me up and I still forgave him, even when I was in the clinic after I tried to kill myself I still thought about him all the time and made the decision not to just give up. I can be patient when I want to be, and Sid was worth waiting for.

Now it’s more about Tony, not in that way but…there was this accident and Tony and I were just starting to get on finally, he helped me with Sid when I had to go away and he actually listened to me and was nice. Before that we never got on, he was never very nice to Sid and I didn’t get why Sid bothered to hang around with him just to be abused and insulted but I think maybe when Michelle broke up with him he thought about the way he’d been and decided maybe he could try being at least half way nice for a while. I was in Elgin when I heard about the accident, I wanted to come home, to make sure everyone was okay. I wanted to sit by Tony’s bedside, because no one deserves to be alone even when they’re in a coma, even when they call you crazy right to your face.
