Onward…
I think that now that the whole SuperBowl exposure thing has been openly discussed and Janet has admitted that it was her idea…so on and so forth, that it’s time to move on. What do ya think?
I received an email this morning from a dear friend of mine out in Florida. It makes me a little sad that some of my friends…my closest friends…live in other states. I miss spending time with them…and this friend in particular. We haven’t seen each other in 11 years…that alone is just sad. We’d even lost touch with one another for almost 10 years and finally found each other again last year when he was still living in Texas. A few months later, he was transferred to Florida. See, he works for Disney…he’s a computer technician and they needed him at their home location instead of a remote office. Anyway, he and his girlfriend moved out to Florida and are now away from their families and friends…it gets a bit lonely at times he said. I can understand that.
He’d mentioned how much he misses me…and that he ocassionally looks up my profile pic on Yahoo just so that he can see me…he says it makes him feel a bit better.
That makes me sad. I miss him too…I mean, we haven’t seen each other in so long it’s pitiful…but when we lived in Texas…we saw each other everyday! We were best friends in high school and we were even in a band together…he was my drummer. We used to have these late night discussions…just show up at each other’s house in the middle of the night because we needed to talk. That was so long ago..but I remember it all like it was yesterday.
Even when I gave birth to my oldest daughter…he was there…always supporting me. We never dated at all in high school…or after high school for that matter. In fact, we never dated period! We were just best friends…not that neither of us ever ruled out dating each other…but it just never worked out that way. I was involved with my daugher’s biological father at the time…and he was always dating someone. Not always the best person…but someone. lol
Anyway, now that we are all grown up…and both found the love of our lives, we’ve noticed that the one person like we’d like to talk about all of this stuff with is so far away. Not fair at times…but we try to email each other when we can…and we rarely get to chat, let alone actually talk to each other. I’m hoping that sometime soon we’ll be able to visit one another…so that I may meet this woman that he’s fallen head over heels for and he can meet my wonderful husband. Maybe we can go to DisneyWorld at the same time…yeah…bonus!!
Okay…I’m done now…like the title says…Onward!
Happy Hump Day!
