Recent events:
1. Got flipped off on a web site that once hosted a business co-owned with former friend. (Wow, how does that happen? Someone devotes an entire website just to flippin' him off!"
2. Nearly got into a slugfest with same former friend. Former friend emails next day to officially announce he is retiring from the friendship, will not contact, no, nada, never. One day later former friend text messages to tell him his favorite cat has come home.
3. Tired of talking about former friend with friends, strangers, mutants, or guests, or professional online personalities.
4. Ponders why, if so many people hate marriage why so many people try it anyway.
5. Wonders if he'll work another 12-15 hours today.
6. Realizes what itunes is and what it does (a bit behind in the technology end). This comes following the purchase of an ipod (wow, another novelty).
7. Has 90% attendance in 8am class. This is a first since, well, the first day of class!
8. Has dreams about French bathrooms and how the French don't give you any privacy in the toilet, even though he hasn't been in many French bathrooms to speak of.
9. Gets an email from girl saying he should not care about her. He doesn't respond. She writes back to ask what he things about her saying he should not care about her. He responds saying he needs space. She responds later in the day saying she'll respect that and give him space. She writes again the next day saying that this is the two year anniversary of a best friend's death. She thinks she's okay, just thought he should know. He doesn't respond.
10. Shoots more baskets at the gym. One of the only things that makes sense. Feels like basketball is becoming an extension of his hand. Wonders if he could date said basketball. Hates playing, but likes shooting free throws and layups and going jogging, but not all at the same time. Realizes career as basketball superstar will most likely never be realized (*wicked laugh* No, it could be! It could!). Decides to take up rock climbing again.

First of all...
He can't "retire" from a friendship he was fired from.
2. He was flippin you off for several weeks on that site, all the while calling you friend to your face.
3. Former friend is not to be talked about longer.
4. There may be alot of people who hate marriage, however, there are many of us who LOVE marriage.
5 - 10. Don't dwell on the basketball as a friend, just become one ith it: don't work too hard, just play harder: Climb that rock baby!

Don't allow others to 'dick'tate, your behavior.
Marriage is neither love nor hate; it's a relationship that has the potential to go bad or be great. That is why we have to say "for better or worse." I don't hate marriage, even when I say I do. I doubt that makes sense, but it's true. I hate the bad times.
Miss you, but I get the sense that you want space. I'm here whenever you want to talk on topics of your choice.
