Too much Drama in the LBC

Feb 21, 2004 19:16

I left work early today because my foot was killing me. Two days of crazy work and running around on a broken toe doesn't do wonders for you. So I came home, put my foot up and took some Alieve. Now I'm thinking of breaking out the Vicadin because it's not feeling much better.

Then I decided to try to make some baked potato soup. It was very good! Dustin and I made a big pot of soup and then had some for dinner. We still have enough left over to eat it for the next few days. And it was relatively easy!

I have decided recently that some people love to create drama, or at least try to. Sometimes it's without knowing it, other times it's painfully obvious. I've decided I'm over the drama, I have no need for it anymore. Apparently I'm getting older and cranky and tired of all the silly high school type games.

I feel like my life has taken a definite turn in the past month or two. It seems that there has been a lot of growing up taking place, and that things that used to seem important to me, aren't anymore, and things that weren't that important suddenly are. Chalk it up to getting older, and a major life change about to take place. Whatever it is, I think it's a welcome change in my life.

I went out with a friend last night for a few hours. We just sat and had some nachos and a couple drinks, and talked about life. It was interesting. I didn't feel the need to explain anything to her. We just talked like two adults about our lives and things that were going on. It's interesting when you get to the point where you feel like you have real adult friendships/relationships with people. No more High School drama about who likes who, who doesn't like who, who's dating who, why someone's pissed at someone else, etc. etc. Given, she just got married, bought a house, got a dog, etc. Her life is also going in a different direction.

I do feel like some of my friends are drifting apart from me. I know this is a natural thing, but it still is weird. I guess I just don't know how to keep everyone happy anymore and I'm done trying. I can't always make everyone happy or be everywhere at once. I don't have time for that anymore. There are the people that don't call me back, then bitch me out for not talking to them. Ummm..if I leave you a message, call me back and I'll talk to you. One of my friends I couldn't even send an invitation to because she refuses to leave me a message when she calls with her address, and when I try to call her back she is never there. I'm sure she will be pissed when the wedding rolls around and she's not there, but what can I do, I asked her to leave it for me. I'm just done with the drama.
I feel like the people that I know are my true friends are the ones I don't have to explain myself to. The ones that I can not talk to for a couple weeks, or more, then when we do talk it's like we never skipped a beat. As people grow up I think that's more how friendships go anyway. It's just been on my mind a lot lately.

Ok, I'm done rambling. I am going to go take some drugs and put my foot up and hopefully it will stop throbbing.
I need to make a list of all the crap I have to do next week. Now that I'm only working Friday and Sat. I have all week to get stuff done which at this point is kind of nice. Although I do need to figure out what I'm going to do next job wise.

Oh...and my first shower is next Sunday! I'm so excited. My mom's friend has gone to a lot of work and it should be fun. It will also be nice to have all the girls together. And it will make all this feel even more real! Scary.
