Hello there, world...
Yes, I know--I've been completely and utterly absent from AIM for quite a while now, and haven't shown myself much in other ways, as well, these past couple of weeks. Some of it has to do with the fact that my parents, either one of them or both, have been home every day for the past week, which severely limits my internet access. Another part of it has to do with the fact that when I did get an opportunity to be online for any given period of time, I was either too tired to deal with conversations--I would have been fairly unresponsive anyway--or I didn't really feel it was worth signing on because I knew I'd probably only be on for a period of a few minutes. I didn't want anyone to think I was avoiding them, so I figured if I was just gone it wouldn't be such a big deal. The last part of it is just my latent antisocialness taking over. The longer I stayed away, the easier it was to continue staying away. I think I will be back on AIM in the next couple of days, definitely. At least I hope so. Email and comments are other good ways to get ahold of me if you do need to talk to me, I have been reading and checking even if I haven't been chatting much.
A lot of things have been going on too, emotionally and just in life in general. One of my very best friends is facing what could be the end of his engagement, but it'll be at least a couple of weeks before we really even have a clue as to what's going on. I'm starting to try to rekindle an old friendship which I've always held very dear to me--we just kind of grew apart as the years passed and I'll admit, I'm excited to give it another shot. The catch is that it's actually an ex of mine, but someone with whom I was friends with before we were a couple and friends with after as well, to an extent. He was my first real love, I suppose, and even when we broke up I swore that I would still keep a special place for our friendship in my heart--and I still care about him, just like I knew I always would. I'll be happy to have him back in my life because we shared a lot--and one can never have too many friends, ya know! I've talked to Evan about it just to make sure he's comfortable with it, but all seems decidedly well on that front. :)
I do miss him though--it's been a couple of weeks and my heart's finally starting to ache from not having him by my side. The fact that I found two of his shirts left over from his last visit help a little--his scent is calming and soothing. I am definitely ready to be back in Morgantown with him though; we have a lot of good prospects for the new school year, financially, socially, and sexually. :P Maybe the hunt for that perfect someone will come to an end? Who knows. :B As long as I have fun doing it, what do I care? ;) Hehe. I really am quite surprised at both of us these days, it seems that we get braver and braver with every passing semester. If you knew what happened between us tonight....*evil grin* But for once, I'm not telling. ;)
What else? The whole reunion came about because Jeannette and I went to go see a local production of 'Into the Woods' last night. Firstly, if you've never heard it, saw it, whatever, go buy a cast album or the video right now. And get one for me too, while you're at it. ;) I'm desperately trying to d/l the songs off of Kazaa, but it's slow going with dial-up. I'll be buying the CDs at first and probably the video too once I get the money. At any rate, J (as he will be known until I get express permission to use his real name--and no, it doesn't narrow things too much as far as ex-boyfriends go since they all had names that started with J :P And hi, if you're reading, incidentally ^_~) was developing into a promising young singer when I pushed him along the musical theatre path way back in eighth grade. :B When another mutual friend told Jeannette and I that he was going to be in the show, it had my interest. I'd always wanted to see the show anyway, since I'm not familiar with Sondheim and because J had sung a few songs from it back in high school. Needless to say despite a few opening-night hitches I thought it was pretty damn good. The girl who played the witch especially so, but all the cast was excellent. :)
Mmm. I'm staring out my window at the almost-full moon right now--it's so beautiful. The moon that I know Evan was looking up at an hour ago. Mmm. :)
My ramblings are getting more nonsensical by the minute, I suppose I should post this and head on to bed. I'll detail the sleepover at Jeannette's after the show tomorrow. :P
I'll be back to my normal online routines soon, methinks. :)
