From an interesting article (http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/pacificnw/2005/0213/cover.html):
"A lot of what people call socializing is really just public isolation," O'Brien says.
And that is the best one-line summary to date I have come across that most accurately describes why I'm not upset I wasn't invited to go up to Whistler. That is how I feel when I look like I'm having fun in pictures hanging out with my "group of friends" from high school. Trust me, I know full well how pathetic and passive-aggressive this sounds. But honestly, whoever was planning it, I probably wasn't friends with them anyway. Not really. So I've taken the last 4 days to appreciate the honesty that in due time has come forth, and that has been lacking in our more accurately termed 'acquaintanceship' for...years.
Breaks always do weird things to me.
