I say you should channel Vortex. She's incredibly clever, witty, and intriguing.Great idea! Vortex, you should ask Vortex what she'd write.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Lovely. Very pettable.

ugh. I really don't feel like going out tonight (either energy wise or spending the money), but I think that my friend is having a "last night in DC" Thing is, he's one of those people that always abandons friends when he's dating someone. I've called him on it several times, and finally just resigned myself to the fact that he's never going to be as good a friend to me as I am to him (even with not close friends, I have a certain standard :)). I haven't heard from him since his going away party a few weeks ago. Heard from a mutual friend this afternoon that there might be something tonight. Got home, saw I had a VM message from him. I don't really want to go. I feel vaguely obligated, but at the same time, I really don't feel like we're friends any more.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I vote with beth. It's one thing to be torn when it's your zero-energy up against someone you feel fondly towards--this guy sounds like he's eroded goodwill.
Be good to yourself.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
ooo I can afford free will! ;)
I get to leave work now, at nearly 8. Drive home with bosses video camera, to transfer a video of a cello player playing a song; burn to dvd and bring back to work first thing in the AM. Joy. Rapture. We really need a small video edit system here at work. Every season we are doing SOMETHING with video.
I might indulge in a bit of Xbox tonight, if anyone wants to play IM me, or ping me in LIVE.
(the good thing about leaving work now... no traffic! woot!)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Know what's morbid and creepifying? Watching Simon Tam making out with Dawnie Summers in a Lifetime Original Movie [link] . After all the clients went to bed, co-worker found that while surfing and had been just waiting and waiting to see the movie.
I can has brane bleech nao, plz?

Heh. I think I know the friend Vortex is talking about. And yeah...if you didn't go out with him, V, I think you should just remember his going away party fondly, and think of that as his going away, if you know waht I mean. Because god knows I hardly saw him living int he same damn city, I figure I will lose him forever when he's gone away in a different city. Stupid boy.
