I’ve been feeling really nostalgic lately. I go through these phases. As I lack a best, best friend in real life, I often think about my “old” best friends.
A few weeks back, I tried getting in touch with Jessica again. Called every number I found, and got nothing. I even called her grandma’s house and she told me she remembers me (her grandmother) and that she didn’t speak to her or her mom anymore.
Starting last week, after enrolling in school I started thinking about Sally and Veronica. Sally went to the school I’m going to, so that sparked the memories. One of the times I was driving to school I saw Veronica’s mom walking home.
Today, at around 3pm I decided I was going to do it. I was going to call Sally and see how she’s doing. I called. Her mom sounded so happy to hear from me. We chatted; she asked me about the kids and about Mario. She got my number and told me she’d tell Sally to call me back when she got home from school. She still hasn’t called.
Sure, she could be busy. But I know better and I know she could probably care less that I called. It hurts, I admit. I won’t even bother calling Vero. I don’t know how she feels about me. She seemed cold and awkward when I went to visit her after she had her baby back in 2001 (or was it 2002?). I really wish I knew how they were all doing. I don’t know why I bother

Wow, this was depressing.
Oh, and the hurricane finally brought us a jizzle of rain. I was out there sanding some of those Yu-gi-oh statues and it felt so nice. It’s all cloudy, overcast, BREEZY with light, rolling thunder. I love this weather

Didn’t realize it was so late. Gonna start dinner before the electricity goes out!
