(no subject)
This morning I had a dream about re-meeting my best friend from primary school. As a little back-story, he ended up going to a different secondary school, and even though we kept in contact for a couple of years, he lived too far away for me to visit him by myself. He then moved even further away in year 10 or so, and I only know this because I met his mum in Sainsbury's; she was working at the checkout. He was one of the best friends I've ever had, and I always regretted losing contact with him, especially when I was attending my first secondary school where I never made any proper friends.
The dream wasn't that special. I met him at the Post Office where he used to live (his parents ran the shop), and we went to some random place with lots of bridges and played some weird card game. I remember being much taller than him, which I was when we were 11, but probably wouldn't be now. But when I woke up I instantly ran down to the computer to search for him with google. I guess I was still in the dream mindset. His name must be very common, because I got a lot of hits even when I limited the search criteria, none of them him. I then realised that no one my age puts their real full name on the internet anyway.
I just feel a little sad that I lost all contact with him just out of laziness, and I think we would probably still get along now. When I talked to his mum in Sainsbury's she mentioned him spending all his time on the Internet, and he always was a bit of a geek.
And yes, I realise just how pathetic this post sounds.
