for an entire month! or longer if she finds a job.
yay!
i just got home from picking her up, getting her stuff into her room at the ywca and going out for coffee (i had a coconut swirl mocha — i’ll be up all night). god, it’s been a year since she was here last, but it’s like she’s never left. i couldn’t stop talking, telling her about my life. i spent most of the drive home thinking about the things i forgot to mention. of course, if we corresponded on even a semi-regular basis i wouldn’t have to rush through all these things when i see her. but, the best part is, we obviously don’t need to. we like each other just fine, regardless of the time or distance.
karen is here! wahoo!
geez, when i meet up with people i haven’t talked to in a long while, it goes something like this:
jim: [news]
other person: yeah, i read that in your blog.
jim: oh. umm, [news]
o.p.: yeah, i remember reading that too.
jim: oh. ummm, i’m a supermodel now, i grew three extra arms, and both my cats are now fluent in mandarin – the aliens taught them right after they gave me eternal life.
o.p.: yeah, i noticed you spelled “received” wrong in that post.
jim: oh, so what’s new with you?
o.p. : not much.
–silence–
o.p.:yeah, i remember that too.
oops. hack off the last line of that last comment. oh crap, it’s all ruined. i’m no good with these komputer things. where’s the white-out?
