1. Honestly, I friended you because you were seeing some one we both know at the time and would post in his journal. He's famously close-vested with personal things so I took the opportunity to find out more about you. Since I wasn't hitting the Merc at the time, I thought it was the best way.
2. Jane says, "Have you seen my wig around? I feel naked without it." She knows they all want her to go. But that's okay, man, she don't like them anyway.
3. With all you've been through in your life, you manage to not fall into a self-referential spiral of woe somehow. I still don't know how you manage to not just curl up into a ball of pity more often and just tell everyone to f**k off because you don't care about their problems.
4. This isn't really a memory where you were present, but the guy referenced earlier and I were sitting at a bar "back in the day" having a conversation. He mentioned something about your physical problems and I had a flash of empathy. Most people don't know I'm nearly completely deaf in one ear because I don't make a big deal out of it or ask them to accommodate. I felt you would understand that and we had something in common.
5. This is perhaps a tad TMI for a public entry, but over the course of my knowing you online I've watched you see a few fellas. One of them started posting pictures up on flickr on a regular basis. I noticed there were three times more pictures of one of your friends than of you, and wondered about that. Was that really an issue or am I reading WAY too much into it?
6. You would think my favorite would be "motel fetish," but it's actually "content rose."
I associate myself with those lyrics as well, rather unsurprisingly. :)
Honestly, I try not to think too much about my difficulties, past and present. I'm forced to deal with the hearing loss and the fact that it makes things hard on an everyday basis, but there's no point in dwelling or feeling sorry for myself. I really have no choice but be strong and deal.
With the ex-boyfriend in question, the other girl was the friend who'd introduced us. The three of us were pretty close, but they'd been friends for a much longer period of time. And actually (I just checked for the first time in a lonnnng time), I'm at 135 photos as opposed to her 113. Heh.
And I like that your favorite is "content rose." :)
I know it was somewhat obvious, but sometimes those are the best. ;)
Those're my feelings about it as well. It only gets frustrating when people I care about forget and assume I'm ignoring them or purposely being obtuse when in fact I just really didn't understand or hear them at all.
I thought it was either something like that or his other shots of you were "not for public consumption." It was just something I noticed at the time but never got around to asking.

And congrats on passing her up, the slattern!
