2 of my closest friends are coming home from the world yonder this month. It’s been a really difficult and nauseating year, and I’m just glad that I’ll get to see them after a very long time. These people, they drift in and out of my life, but what’s constant is that when I come undone and find myself somewhere in the middle, lost and confused between what’s real and what’s not, I find comfort in the knowledge that a part of myself is in their safekeeping and that I need not worry of being blown into dust and into nonexistence.
Plus they’d probably bitch slap me once they find out what I’ve been up to. In my defense, it’s not that bad. And I think I’ve made pretty good decisions for myself this year. Pat me on the back and give me a hug!
As far as friends go, it’s been a really disappointing year. Wait. That was mild. It was a bitching year for friends. You kind of think they are, turns out they’re your quasi-friends, or maybe it turns out that they weren’t, never was, and then of course if you’re as psycho as me in analyzing then you’d probably know that rule number one is to take out the rest of the pile and examine each one closely. Hey, it is not easy to take out the growing list of phonebook and list pros and cons beside their names. You get ink stains, callused fingers, and a lot of paper was wasted. Oh yeah, it was emotional too. Pft.
Here’s the trick: Save for a short list, everyone else is just a single-serving friend. Thank you Tyler. I am Jack’s enlightened chakra.
I can’t wait for you guys to come home. It’s a welcome addition to a 4-item list* of things to look forward to.
