the one thing about having friends on the internet, when they move, it doesn’t really matter. you don’t really miss them, cause they’re an email or phone call away just like they were before, only now you’re talking to them in another city. the thing about having friends in your everyday life, is you get to actually interact with them on a pretty regular basis, and things are cool. but when they go to move, you have to almost prepare yourself, and then they actually move and you get that empty feeling. both types of friends seem to have their pluses and minuses. the thursday night group will carry on, but i’ll miss those times in the shed drinking wine and talking about how cursing out a customer at a blueprint copying shop is not a good thing. the best part of last thursday when we just sat around a fire, musing about life, drinking expensive beer…was when zach said “it doesn’t matter if its 3 years from now and we haven’t talked since then. you can call me. i like how we’re all low maintenance friends”. amen.

in happier news, i finished painting….well, i lied. i have a bit of touchup work to do around the windows…but other than that i’m done. things look great, and i’m not talking great because i did it, i’m talking great like the rooms could be featured in a magazine. i get my new floor on friday. i’m glad the floor guys aren’t coming till maybe 10, cause thursday night i’m going to see mute math! i got my tickets the other day. its going to be awesome.

and to combine the above paragraphs, it was almost a year ago that i went and saw mute math and met some of my now best friends. what a year it has been since then…
