So I've come to a conclusion.....
I've always waited around for friends to come to me with things to do. I have now noticed that doing things that way isn't what it's cracked up to be. Or in other words, that way isn't working out. So I've decided that I will now be the one that starts up the conversation and I'm gonna start putting myself out there and talking and start meeting new people. I always had that "Sleeping Beauty" mentality. I always thought that the one I would fall in love with and marry would come to me. I've found out that it doesn't nessicarily happen often, if ever. So I've decided to stop moping around and get off my ass and do something about it. I'm tired of not having friends close by to do something with. I mean, I have friends, and I love you all to death, but a good majority of them either live 30 minutes to 2 hours away or live in another state or across the country. It really sucks when I talk to my friends online or on the phone and I think "Wow. This is person is really cool. I wish they lived here or I lived there so we could hang out and do stuff together." And it sucks because I work 30-40 minutes away from my house, so I know people there, but not back home. Same with the shows I go to. I've met some really cool people and some who are now best friends, but it sucks that I have to drive 30 minutes to an hour and a half to see those best friends. So starting now, I'm taking on a new lead. I'm gonna start talking more and doing more things locally. Cause I'm sick of being stuck at home and not doing anything. I'm gonna start doing things more differently now. I've been stuck here for over 4 months due to family things. That kind of put our whole lives on hold. And now that someone pushed the unpause button, I'm trying to get everything back in motion and trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. Right now, I feel like I'm at a crossroads with 3 or 4 different paths in front of me and I can not decide which path to take. But I guess that that's part of life and we just need to take time to figure it all out. We'll see what happens. I'll let you know how it works out. And if you read that whole thing, you deserve a freaking medal. haha. Anyway, I just thought I'd throw that out and get it off my chest. We shall see what the future will bring. I hope you all are doing well and taking care of yourselves and each other. I shall talk to you all later. Have a great night/day/afternoon wherever you may be in the world. Take care.
Mike.
