BLAH!
I have stuff I want to say.... that needs to be said... but I'm not at my most coherant just now... kinda tired and all...
So here's what I'm going to say right now:
monkie does speak for both of us... it's not coming just from her... just want to make sure that's clear... and when you feel like we're attacking you, most likely we're not...
I just wish I could see people more than I do... which is pretty much never.
Yes, I saw you 2 weeks ago at my wedding... but we didn't get to spend much time together because of everything going on... and we got some time with a few people the next day, but not NEARLY everyone anyway... and it was really long time between times of seeing eachother... I know people can't just drop everything when I come to town, I get that... it's just hard when every time I come to town NOBODY is free... it's not anybody specific... NOBODY is free at all... and after that going on for about 3 years. Ever since I left highschool it's been nearly impossible to see anyone that I was so close to then...
I'm not trying to attack you, and monkie isn't either... we're just trying to say that we're feeling a little cut off(?)... I dunno if that expresses what I'm meaning... but I can't find the term, so that'll have to do.
I know that my visits tend to be short notice because of work scheduling etc (or school when I was there)... but it's strange that NOBODY is free at all...
and I should correct that... because Wendy generally sees us when we're here, and we've even stayed with her... and it turns out we may get to see some of Adit this time, so that's good!
but really, since I've started college I haven't been able to visit people... ONCE people said they'd go out with me... but when I called to say I was on my way to Sq1, and I'd be there in 45mins, they cancelled on me on the spot... which sucked. And again, if it was one person that had forgotton something they had to do, fine, but it was a few and everyone suddenly couldn't come.
Now, I'm sure it wasn't because nobody likes me or anything like that... but it was frustrating, and it's been a continual problem.
When Melanie says that we aren't going to try anymore, it's not because we don't care/don't like you, or that we wouldn't love to see you, it's just that we get ourselves so excited to see some friends (cuz we have no lives and all), and then it NEVER works... so we're just gonna leave it be, and let you tell us when you're free and see what we can work out...
I hope that this post has clarified what the intent was in the first place... (especially considering my random exhaustion right now)... I know monkie can come across harsh sometimes... and just because I understand what she's after doesn't mean those of you who don't know her as well do... so I'm jumping in here to try and explain what's meant... and hopefully prevent full out war over something that shouldn't result in that... basically, I wanna see people more, and I wish I could, and I'm really trying and it's just not working and it's really frustrating and makes for cranky mikis...
Perhaps we'll see you all Tuesday... there's a possibility of us going earlier in the day so that we can get back to Stratford at a more decent hour (cuz of traffic in the evening and whatnot) which might cause us to miss you, but we're not decided on that one just yet... cuz we do wanna see people when they ARE free... so, we'll prolly let you all know on that one.
I'm sleepy and this has been a lot longer than I intended (I was just gonna say that monkie's speaking for us both, and "le sigh" or something and be done with it for the night! but no, I keep TALKING!!!!)
so ANYWHORE... "war... what is it good for? absolutely nothing..."
