I Love My Friends (Sunday, Jun. 14, 2009 - 1:12 a.m.) WARNING: I really don't have anything specific to write, so this may be a string of non-sequeters. You know how sometimes you spend some one on one time with a friend and just have a really emotionally gratifying conversation? I had two of those with two different friends in one day. I had brunch with Keith. It was just the two of us today, which has become quite a rarity lately. Anyhow, it was just one of those great conversations where you feel connected and free to be yourself. I was supposed to do a makeover and then have dinner with my high school friend today (we went to high school together, she is not in high school now). She flaked on me, which frankly is VERY out of character for her. And to dispel anything, she asked me for the makeover. I never even offered, as throughout the 6 years I knew her in our youth and the two or so years that we've been hanging out recently, the only time I've ever seen any makeup on her was when we all had to wear it for our 8th grade musical. Anyhow, I'm sure she has an explanation, but I was still pissed, especially because I was also hungry and waiting for dinner with her. Anyhow, right when I was ready to scream, Ken called and asked if I had dinner plans. So I met him, and had another really great conversation. Within 10 minutes I was having a great time. We are planning a trip to (probably) Europe in October. Originally we said Ireland. Then he called to ask if I'd be up for changing it to Amsterdam. Which I'd totally do, for the chance that I'd get to see him stoned, which would just be awesome, though highly unlikely. Then he asked about Costa Rica. I countered with Spain, and then we both kind of thought Italy would be cool. Then we went to see that Life Among the Ruins movie and wanted to go to Greece. The final verdict is that we are going to spend an afternoon in the travel section at Barnes and Noble, make a short list of three or four places, and then hunt for the best deal. Ok, I am so off track. Anyhow, my evening was about to suck, but Ken made it awesome. So yeah, love the friends. |
