Life by the Drop...

Let me start by saying that I don’t think that the car trouble will ever stop. I will leave the rest alone.

Secondly, the weekend was full of faces almost forgotten through time. (Although, if you know me, you know that I never fully forget a face and…I likely will be able to put a name with it too). I spent Friday talking about long lost friends over margaritas and pizza with LBG and then Saturday, I seemed to run into all of them. This after the out of the blue message from JGJ. People from Einstein’s, people from school, people from everywhere. And even though I could have done without seeing some of them again, it was refreshing and I was overwhelmed by the friendliness and hospitality I was shown from people that I didn’t expect would even remember me. It felt like a home full of strangers. It was exciting and new but comfortable and warm at the same time.

The weekend was also filled with demons and sleep-deprivation. Mainly demons that caused deprivation. Not to mention a feeling of abandonment I didn’t really expect. But I won’t get into that either. It is neither here nor there at this point, disappointment has become part of the every day around here. But I can’t help but feel, there is nothing I can’t handle. I have become an army of one lately and I really can’t say that I mind it so much.

I know one thing. For the rest of my life, I will remember slow dancing with JW to “Life By the Drop” instead of her “potato speak” and I’m okay with that. More than she can know.
