Old friends are so strange to have.  You find yourself wanting to hang out with them, but also finding it impossible to find anything that you both have in common.  I have so many of these so called "old friends" and I don't know how to get out of my current state of... the same people all the time.  I know that may sound weird, but do you know what I mean? I miss some of my old junior high buddies, and yes, i keep in touch with them and talk to them just as much as my current companions, but I wish it was easier to hang out.  I don't need to hang out with them, and they don't need me either, because they have their own friends.   But, by golly, I still want to see them more often. 

I don't know how to fix this dilemma.  When two (or several) worlds are so different and far apart, what are you supposed to do to bring them back together?

I guess the only thing to do is to break the ice, but never to do anything out of pity.  (I find pity is my worst enemy when it comes to friendships.)

So be it.

Oh BABIES! Do you remember these suckers? They were the bomb diggity for a couple weeks for me! I loved them like the son loves the moon! I was looking back at my old posts (why? that's a good question), and what did I find: Icons!!

How great is this one? Seriously! WTF is that? I don't even know now!

And this icon is just amazing! Like, I want to mate with whoever made this up in an effort to replenish the earth with hilarity...

I actually don't think this one is that great anymore, but I remember how much I used to love it.  So, in an attempt to respect my pastish self, I post.

Ain't it the truth.

Why I love this icon: When you are little and watching Beauty and the Beast, you never realize how truth this quote with come to be in your life.  And you just thought it was a cute gag... HA!

The funniest line ever.  Lord of the Rings fans all over rejoice.

Word to ya motha.

Luckily for you, I only posted the cutesy funny ones.  Looking back on my writings, I was highly entertained.  So much has happened since 2005: the year of the Xanga.  I was the queen too.  I don't care if you don't agree.  The posts were so long though! I had to scroll and scroll.  I am surprised anyone read it all... but it was a science. Nowadays it would take a stripping midget eating a live goat to get me 30 comments in 5 days.  But, even still, seeing all the relationships and people and old sites and names brought up... it's almost kinda trippy. 

It makes you laugh though.

Thank GOD things change.

And what is this business about objectivity? Bah humbug.

Life is a game.  All of it.

Welcome 2007.  I have watched the years go by, waiting for your celebrated coming.

Finally, the time has come.

It's a very, very...

Oh how strange life can be: the tide of the waves, the emotional journeys, the endless defining boundaries.

How confusing it can be. Why must we swim in this ocean of hysteria? Who has the right to say what we should or shouldn't be?

I feel like a goldfish being constantly watched.

I don't ever want to own a goldfish.

(that is a lie.)

Ya, when I said gay men were "entertaining," I really meant to say "bitchy."  I have completely changed my mind.  Excuse my confusion.

And if you were to read this, and were to value my friendship, you would definitely want to come see me at TCC in Guys and Dolls.  Yes, I judge friendships on how much of an effort you make to see my plays.  Blaaaaah.

Psssst... It's this weekend and next.

Oh, and today I heard a certain female say that "they've said lesbians are going to evolve into their own species in the near future." 

It's at times like these when you lose all respect for an individual and begin considering whether or not they actually have a brain. (Maybe they should evolve one of those first...)

Life is full of all sorts of sad facts.
