Its funny

I find it really funny how things change.

We don't see people for awhile: weeks, months, and even years and the last memory they have kind of just stays with us. When we think of them from time to time, we only see that last part of them that we knew. Its almost like they are frozen in time.

Then when we do see them again, its almost like a whiplash. "Holy shit."

I saw an old friend today. It has been at least three years without talking face to face, or even really talking for that matter. We only saw each other for five minutes and had a cigarette but it was crushing almost. Because we both are completely separate people. One of us is even married and has a kid and one on the way. "Holy shit."

It's not necessarily a bad even an awkward thing, but it is a sobering thing. We found it almost hard to even talk, so we bullshitted about nothing and then parted. I used to be so careless about whether I stayed in contact with friends or what friends I make or who I associate with, almost like it didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. But after today, maybe its not so much the case anymore. Looking at the grand scheme of things does have merit, but maybe I should keep a closer eye. Or invest more time in communicating with those friends to make sure I don't lose thoughts of them in my everyday life.

Anyway, these are just some thoughts. Cammie, I'm glad your doing well in your life. Enjoy every minute of it! Thanks for the chitchat.
