I Hope Tomorrow Is Like Today

It seems like everyone from my past is coming out the woodwork to reconcile with me. It's rather strange actually. Where have all these people been the last 5-10 years? I just don't know. Everyone is different and grownup. I feel like I haven't changed at all, even though I must have... right?

Case in point- 4 recent incidences:

1) Restoration of friendship with Juss. This more than anything is probably because we both have a bit more time to devote to one another. It's awesome- you never know how much you miss someone until they come back into your life.

2) Visit/subsequent call from McCaslin. Why is she resuming ties with me of all our friends? Very strange, but the girl has definitely mellowed.

3) Seeing Clifton. Holy crap- strangest thing ever. How often can you say that you recognized someone that you hadn't seen in 10 years the second you met their eyes? He recognized me right off too- seemed kind of shocked at how much I've changed (ahem- how much weight I've lost, more like it). Definitely flirty. Very strange. I mean, I grew up with this kid and all of a sudden, poof, he's a man.

4) Phone call from Dave, who I haven't actually talked to in 2 years from what we calculated. God I love that boy. Not anything beyond platonic at this point, but it was wonderful to hear his voice and all his catchphrases. He's just so excited about life and I love that. I'll have to be better about keeping in touch with him. He's not happy in Canton though- I never expected him to be, he hated it the first time, why would going back change anything? He seems to be much more raw though- he used to put up with a lot more bullshit than he seems to now. The whole 4 things I say to people lecture was a little unnerving. He knows I'd never do that to anyone- I'm way too nice. Living among a bunch of preppy larries has probably done it to him. But he'll be a rockstar yet, I guarantee it.

Enough ranting for tonight. Just strange how people fall back into your life though, isn't it?

In other news, Teresa got her Eldora pass and her Copper 4 pass, so she is all geared for a kickass season on the mountain. I need a new snowboarding buddy though, since Ad is still being weird about everything. Stupid ex-boys who won't get over themselves long enough to see that their dump-ee is living her life quite merrily. Life goes on.
