i’m wondering why this visit is so different. and why it is forcing me to realize that the frienships that i had in high school weren’t necessarily as great as i always thought they were.  it was more a convenience than anything else. i’m just questioning whether or not i’ll ever fall into a group of people that i can really relate to, who don’t make me feel stupid...

(we made a stocking for everyone at work. people have been putting things in them all week.) went to the library today, so much new music...

do you remember how happy we were that summer? what ever happened to us?  before the drinking and the drugs, the drama and the desperation.  when saying bye meant a day, two at the most, not four months.   i just remember being content with myself. not trying too hard.  i’ve kind of reverted back into that this year.  or, at least i’m trying to revert back to that.  i just want to be...
