Hey. I have come to the conclusion that I need more friends, or at least deeper friendships, with other guys. Aside from Lesley, my social life is pretty much non-existent. I have lots of friends, but none that are deep or close enough to actually go out and do stuff. My problem is that the few close friends I have like that are girls, and I can't exactly go out doing stuff with them when I've got a girlfriend. It's a lonely feeling knowing you've never really gotten the chance to "hang out with the guys" and stuff. But I just feel like I can't click well with many people, guys or girls. They misunderstand me or vice versa. Is it too much to ask to want friends you can do things with? It's nothing at all against Lesley, but my social life needs more than what it has already. Am I not the type of person people can be friends with? For once, it'd be nice to fit in with people without having to compromise my standards and beliefs to make them like me better. Being a loser is cool, but it's nice not to be a loser all of the time. Ah, the perils of being an introvert...
In other news, one of my friends from high school informed recently that a friend at his church has a '79 Camaro that he's wanting to sell. I saw some pictures of this car, and it looks awesome. Unfortunately, there's a possibility he may be selling it to somebody else this week. With my little brother at driving age, I have been hoping that I could let him inherit my Corsica (which I still like, don't get me wrong) and I would take the wheel of the Camaro. I have been praying about this, and I know I will live if this guy sells the car before I can look at it. And that's all I want, the chance to at least look at the Camaro and see if it is something that would serve me well. Either way, it will be fine, though.
I considered writing about my stance on the whole Iraqi prisoner photograph deal, but I don't think I will. I'm guessing few people on LiveJournal read or care about my political beliefs, not that I'm writing my journal for the entertainment of others. With that said, I conclude this entry.
God bless, keep it real.
