First entry
Up too late. Had a wonderful dinner with two of the best friends a girl could ask for. They helped me clean my room, practically hiding bodies it's so messy! Not even nearly done yet, but a good dent has been kicked into it's side. Heavy lifting and going through boxes, sounds like fun eh? Found photos and old mementos. Let a few things go. Gave away a perfectly good electric blanket that I don't need. Takes up room, and my bed is just under the heater...
How do you deal with giving things away? Goodwilling it, so to speak. I'm a self-admitted packrat and always will be. You cannot even see through my car! I don't want to let go of people in my life as well I suppose. I imagine that they will never be another person who will fill their place. Perhaps not another just the same, but life does go on and there are people in my life now who have replaced the one's I spent time with before. Grade school friends are forgotten and gone, High school friends are only occasionally seen. There are new and wonderful people in this world, I just prefer the known quantity, the one's I like and love now. I don't want the two friends I ate with tonight to leave town, they're both moving to SF and I can't stand it. Besides being jealous that they get to live in such a cool place with so much activity and fun parties, places to go and stuff to do, I will miss them a great deal. It seems that everyone I know is so far away. Soon I'll be swamped in paperwork and won't stop to think about it.... much... I hope.
On a totally positive note, got to eat steak at Outback with two fabulous friends, wonderful. I recommend the 12 oz special with garlic mashed potatoes, yummy.
