And I'm sitting at home. In my bed. With my computer on my lap. I promised myself, PROMISED myself, that I would just do a couple of quick things and then go to bed and now it's 3AM.
I had a really nice time tonight hanging out with my friends Jill and Geoff. We played dress up and got together a bunch of fun outfits for a photoshoot and I realized, or remembered, or maybe just enjoyed the fact that spending time with friends and being silly is just about the best thing that could ever happen in life.
I remember when Katie and Kate and Tracy and Cheryl and I would walk down to the pond by Kate's house singing They Might Be Giants all in unison, laughing without a care in the world. We did so much back in those days- coffee houses, camping, running around on golf courses in the middle of the night through sprinklers, and all of that without money, without drugs, without drinking, just with the simple pleasure of each others company and the idea that this moment, right now, was all that really mattered.
It's easy to get lost and feel hopeless and get bogged down with everything there is to do in a day. Everything that you HAVE to do and even everything you want to do- but, I can't help thinking about all the little things in my life that I'm so happy for and how all of those little things are really related to the people I love and have loved in this lifetime.
I miss everybody. And I think about you guys more than you can know. For the good times and the bad, I am and always will be forever grateful.
