Perhaps back in the groove...

Today Michelle came over for a visit, which was really nice because I like her and also because I needed to get out of the house, if only for a little bit. We bought nasty gummy things from winco and a copy of the national enquirer, and I realized how much I appreciate her company for the umpteenth time in the last couple weeks. Someone should really consider finding a way to bottle concentrated amounts of that girl and selling them as a cure all to symptoms such as depression, anxiety, sleep depravation, irritable bowel movements, and heartburn. They would make bank. Michelle has the rare ability to take pictures with a beauty and grace nearly matching my own. I also appreciate her sense of humor more so than any other person I know.

However, Michelle has not been the only person to cross my mind lately. The day before I hung out with Jennifer for a bit while she copied some music/video files I had lying around. We went over to Jon's house (yet another person I truly appreciate) and spoke with him and his parents (whom I also like). The entire time I just kept thinking in the background of my mind how great it is that I have had the opportunity to befriend and spend time with these people. The ceiling tile from Ms. Denny's room was a distant second though. I have never met anyone so genuinely concerned about me as Jenn. I couldn't think of a better friend, no joke. Sometimes I feel like you are my personal angel. I'd be a bit wrong though because you extend your hand to anyone and everyone. I've never met anyone who gave so much to their fellow man. And I often feel like Jon is the taller, better looking, more personable, saintlier, more genuine version of me, aka not me at all. I do believe you are one of my oldest high school friends and I am so glad for having known you. From beat boxing to ballacrosse you've been my greatest partner in crime. I couldn't think of anyone better suited for the job.

A Mr. Neil Wong also heads up my friend appreciation list. In the past month I've had the pleasure of his companionship more often then I'd been accustomed to. Though we have some different opinions on a selection of movies I was delighted to talk about music and film favorites with him. I believe it was the occasional disagreeance (is that a word?) that lead me to expand upon my own interests in these fields. He always leaves with me wishing there were more time. I think I'm drawn most to your ability to be so wise and at the same time be willing to commit some of the most hillarious, childish/terrifying acts of anyone I know. Seriously, You killed Pebi Miller? The humanity...

Megan Braze, you also are on the list. I always love talking with you because you're as sarcastic and spiteful at times as I. Our perverted sense of humor almost always coinsides with one anothers'. I can't recall one instance of the two of us hanging out together and not making fun of someone. I believe this should deserve an award, sadly I will never get around to making one. Perhaps you could just tell people that I gave you one and when they ask where it is or if they can see it, you should just tell them it was lost in a great fire. Great fires always sound impressive. Or maybe you could say that it broke one day when I was beating you for not bringing me a beer and some pretzels after I got home from work. I like the sound of that too.

I suppose I should thank you all for pushing/pulling/hitting/cajoling me, and so I shall. Thanks. Happy now, jerks? Maybe I should Think about making a list of people like Jennifer. It would certainly give me a lifelong pass-time. I could use one of those. Gosh, this post makes me happy.
