Apr. 10th, 2006 12:15 amProbably going to be another long night.
Should I take down the link to link to this journal on myspace? Probably. I don't know what keeps stopping me.
SO my life is all about Topaz. Is that really so fucked up? Probably to someone without kids. I'm pondering the notion that any mother with a five-month-old baby damn well BETTER be obsessed with her baby. Am I wrong? Is there something more important? Excuse me if I have my priorities straight FINALLY.
A lot of people from my high school have joined myspace recently. When I signed up there were only a few people I knew, and now there are lots. Of course, I didn't give a shit then, and I don't give a shit now. I loved high school. But I can't say I particularly miss anyone. I never was really a part of any group, and I always felt like I kind of floated by on the outside. Much like I do now. Works fine for me. I'd rather watch people than talk to them. But it's weird to think these people aren't just vague memories of my adolescence. They're real people with real lives. I can't wrap my head around it. I keep having all these Romy and Michele thoughts, and to be honest, I can't think of one reason I'd ever go back there. Not because I have any particularly bad memories, but because I don't have any particularly great ones either. At least, none relating to people I knew there.
Ugh. Is there really anything to be gained from looking backwards? I doubt it. The people I've lost touch with, who I'd actually LIKE to hear from will probably never bother to look me up. Nancy, for example. When we met in Ireland, I really thought we were going to be great friends. When she announced she was moving back to Boston, I really thought we were going to be great friends. But somehow it never happened. Oh well.
Is it something in the water, though? It's like a trend now to look people up from your past. I only do it whem something is especially nagging at me. It's just too exhausting.
