Reconnect

Saturday is a good day to blog. i don't have work, just homework.

I could change the name of this blog to "seeing old friends" but I wont. It seems that is all I do anymore. I do not make new friends, rather i spend my time goign out to lunch with an old friend, watching a movie with an old friend, walking to class with an old friend, or making pizza with an old friend. Reconnecting has a strange sense of familiarity to it with an awkward mix of "Who are you again?" I find now thta meeting up with some people turns out great. Meeting with others is almost unbearable.

To spare the hurt feelings of the innocent I wont share names but yesterday I met up with 3 groups of old friends. The first two were slightly uncomfprtbale, looking for an escape type events. The intial meet ups were more of the second type. looking around for an excuse to leave, after about ten minutes i cannot even concentrate on the topic at hand because i am so uncomfortable in the moment. It brings a sad realization that things as they once were are not the same as things as they will soon be. With a change in life has come a change in sociality.

the last get-together/ reunion was great. Slightly awkward at times, but that happens a lot to me. Im just awkward; my life isnt a movie after all.

Midnight.

Arthur and DW always wanted to know what happens after midnight on new years. Well last nigth i found out for them. the answer? martinellis, a big ball dropping, and banging pots and pans.
happy 2011
