A February to Remember

Catching up with my friends used to happen on Friday and Saturday nights. Now, we catch up with lengthy phone calls or long-winded emails and I can't help feeling that it's just not the same. I'm extremely pleased with the way my life is going (career indecision excluded), I am with someone who makes me smile on an hourly basis, I am supporting myself -- cellphone bill and groceries aside, I thoroughly enjoy my free time & friends still living here: basically, my life is progressing as it should. Nonetheless, I once again feel like I was not prepared for this sudden social shift. Where is everybody? We can't be at the point already where we only see each other at Weddings and on Holidays ...can we? I think I'd feel better if we had annual events planned, like a Roomie Reunion, a Hometown Barcrawl, a Madtown Barcrawl and maybe even a Ohio/Wisc Spring Break! Yes, that would definitely make me feel better about all of this. Maybe some of you are ready to move on to this so-called "Mature Phase" but I happen to still like all of you and I do believe we were all close friends at one time or another and I'm not ready to give that up! I'm not sure what to do about all of it, however, if you have any ideas shoot me an email for chrissake. Or, on an individual level: if you're thinking about/missing me, then that probably means that I'm thinking about/missing you, so let's at least do lunch if you're in the frickin state?

This February has been one to remember, for sure, but my personal curse is that I remember most Februaries and I'm not capable of forgetting all of the great times we had.

I love you and I think it sucks that we don't see each other more, you buttholes.
