Friends

While I would not describe myself as having very many good friends, I like to think the ones I have are pretty loyal to me. 

In high school, I was not unpopular, but have now come to realize that no one seemed to care if I went to any parties and socialized outside of school at all. I was on the basketball team, but didn't hardly get off of the bench at all. I remember my senior year, several of my friends went to longs retreat for a weekend of shenanigans, and nobody said a word to me. One of my friends from church is now married to the girl I took to senior prom after he seemingly realized I wasn't terribly interested in any further dating of her. Most of the people I know from high school are surprised at how much I would drink when they might see me at a party, but now I don't drink hardly at all so that holds no weight. I just looked through my phone and I have two peoples numbers that graduated with me, and about six numbers of people that graduated with either of my brothers in 2004 or 2007. 

In college I had more friends that were willing to put up with me socially, but none of them were in my major, or for that matter even in the same college. CFAES was the ag colllege, and most of my friends were engineers. I do wonder what I would talk to them about now that I drink way less, but that day hasn't come yet. Two of my good friends I talk to about once a month, but that would be way less if they didn't come to visit brown county to have some decent hunting ground. The one buddy is now engaged and has become a bit of a scatterbrain about returning calls. My other good friend goes to UNLV for law school, but doesn't care to return calls either. Most of the girls I know up there weren't that interested in talking to me hardly ever so I rarely get more than a sentence out of them when I see them online or on facebook. 

Its a good thing for me that most of who my friends are now are family. If not for them I would be especially lonesome or depressed. The problem that I have now is that my ex-girlfriend is way interested in being a friend and is cluttering up my facebook wall like she is marking her property of something. I need to figure out a way so that she can write on my wall, but her actions are invisible to everyone else. It wouldn't be so bad if she didn't think of something to comment on every day, but she is and I either have to hope it lessens or make yell at her some. 

Gonna watch nick and nora's infinite playlist tonight, may start a little campfire and then see who is on snl.
