friendships
last night i fell asleep at 7 and woke up around 10 for a bit and went back to bed on the couch and woke up at 4 AM. although i didn't work yesterday, i couldn't keep my eyes open for the life of me.
thanks for all the love yesterday, the carpets are almost all dry, just one spot in my second bedroom is still damp. i'll leave that window open today.
lately i've been thinking about friendships, how they've come and gone with certain people. after katie left on sunday night, i told kristy how lucky i was that she was still apart of my life after all these years. we both agreed that she's pretty fucking awesome.
it's funny who sticks with you. i know i'm not the easiest person, i suck at returning calls, but it doesn't mean i don't think about people or care about them any less. some people realize this, while others do not.
for example, i see hallie and sash maybe 2 or 3 times a year, but when we do see eachother, it's great. they both know that we have busy schedules, live in three different places, and that it's hard to talk on the phone (for me it is...i'm not a phone talker)...but it doesn't feel weird to me, it doesn't feel awkward. i lived with them for a year (sash really more than that) and really when you live with people, you get to know all parts. the good ole days at the BGH.
i guess what really dissapoints me the most is when friends act like your relationship is a bother, a "have-to", or simply forgets because other relationships become more important.
i know that i will never be the #1 person in most of my girls' lives because eventually they will find that special someone and that automatically changes things. but it doesn't have to. i look at angela and tim. i've known this girl since '99 and through it all, she is married and is still there, and not only that i gained someone else special, tim. i love them both.
i guess that's the way life goes when you're in your twenties. the evolution of friendships and putting the memories of the past of the shelf. the cool thing is, when you do finally get the chance to be with your dear old friends, that camera will be there to pick up those times, to add to those memories.
all in all, i'm a lucky young man.
watching friendships change, and sometimes deteriorate can be a bummer. but hey, i have a gimped armed, damp carpet, and nice cup of coffee next to me.
and i'm hoping for some good luck. i will have my fingers, toes, and pretty much every thing else on my body crossed for the next couple of days. if i had two cacks, i'd cross them too.
