Lusttag
I know Im not being the greatest LJ writer of all time, and Im definetly not being the best LJ friend. Frankly, I suck.
I have a large family so getting online is difficult. We only have one computar to share between 4 teenagers. Plus, I am blessed with not being a technomaniac. I can easily live without going online.
I can easily live without a connection to the online world because I am retro. I like muscle cars, classic rock, vintage clothing. I do not own a cell phone. Id rather read the book than the sparknotes. Ive never downloaded a song in my life. Hell, I dont have an e-mail address. Claire let me use hers to set this whole LJ thing up.
I perfer to live life rather than stare at a glowing screen that tells me what life is. I go out and play my guitar at the park, or, now that it has started raining, the bowling alley. I befriend and talk for hours with the old guys who are there on league nights. I run my dog. I go to work and help kids with their homework. I sketch. I laugh. I sing really loud, out of tune, but only when Im alone.
Claire is gone. Shes back east and everything is peachy for her. She loves it. Its a bit depressing without her. No movie mania and quirkiness.
Gwen, I have failed to mention, is also gone. Shes on the other side of the state, loving being in a sorority, flirting with the boys, procrastinating on her homework.
And I think Im okay with it. Im getting to that point, the over it point. Over her.
Maybe this distance between us, and her lack of time to call me, will help the whole liketag be over. Lusttag. So we can both get on with our lives and find someone new. Someone perfect.
I think the rain is making me a bit meloncholy. I end now before this turns into a downer entry instead of the introspective one I wanted it to be.
