Nostalgia and a ring

[mateus]

I still have the ring that Audrey gave me. It's long tarnished and doesn't fit my finger anymore. In retrospect, I think that ring was quite representative of our relationship. I remember of all the times we broke up and got back together, I only ever took it off once and that marked the official end of our relationsip. But I really loved that ring

Stop beatin yourself up about it. As much as that was "teen love" so is bitchin about it later. I'm sure you are apologetic, don't get me wrong, but don't worry. I've ripped off a few rude words about my Xs but you know I was into them at the time. Nostalgia can be a dangerous thing because you always try to remember the good times. For example, it's easy to remember the good times we had chillin in the halls of ol' Jarvis and shoot pool and all sorts of shit, but really it was not great. I mean we bitched to each other the entire time. I think there was one or two times that even WE were at odds.

Anyways..

You're right, but you're wrong.
I think you missed the point of the entry, I wanted to remember the good times in this perticular instance as a matter of balance for all the other shitty things I've written.

And plus, chillin' wit you and shooting pool was good times. We had our shit like the rest of the world, but at the end of the day, it was good times.

You're right.
I just don't want you to be...impulsive, for the promise of good times, ya ken?
But then again, who am I to point fingers.

I know what you mean, but impulse makes life interesting.
It's often on impulse we take the road-less-travelled.

Well, the people on the road less travelled are definitely more vivid.
I'm more of a trailblazer miself...at least I try to be.
