it’s kind of a holiday tradition that i talk to my friend Tyler in a huge rush while he’s visiting his childhood home in Arizona. i guess when he’s away from the excitement of his high-falooting life in the city of angels he has more time to catch up with old (old, old, old) friends.
i don’t know why i’m mentioning it other than i really love it when we get to send more than one message to each other each week. part of me really misses the hours (and hours and hours and hours) we used to spend online chatting or talking on the phone into the wee hours of the night. the other part of me wonders what i could have done with all those hours (and hours and hours) if i’d been so inclined. hrm.
anyway, there’s no real point to any of this. just that i have a very large amount of affection for my friend Tyler and there aren’t even enough words to express how happy i am we are still in contact (however sporadic) and that after twelve years we finally got to meet and it must have went well because he keeps saying he wants to come back again (even though it hasn’t worked out that way yet).
btw, i ate about 18 timbits and drank approximately 1.5 litres of coffee for breakfast this morning. i don’t think i’ll ever make sense ever again.
p.s. today is my work birthday. 13 years! i’ve worked here as long as i was in the public school system. i should get a diploma! or at least a cake. where’s my cake?!
Hey! I respond quite promptly nearly every time. You are apparently too busy for me sometimes. That, or Pingchat sucks. Or both.
Also glad we get to catch up. :)
Tyler IS kinda nice I guess… :) I think we got to meet in 2000ish! I always wave to “auntie” out of plane windows when I fly over Arizona…which doesn’t happen often anymore.
