friday night! woohoo!

Question three from The Book of Questions:
If you were to die this evening with no opportunity to communicate with anyone, what would you most regret not having told someone? Why haven’t you told them yet?

i'd probably regret not getting to tell my family and friends i love them one more time, but i'm confident they know that already. would just be good to say it one more time.

a couple of my friendships have faded over the past five years and i suppose i'd like to find out why. i lost touch with stacy, strangely enough, when i lived only minutes away from her house. i visited a couple of times when i first moved to kent, but then we never talked and i got busy and i assumed she did too. but now it's been over four years with no contact. a similar thing happened with jennifer - we were in contact for so long and then suddenly *poof* no more. i guess i hesitate to say anything to either of them because i'm sure they have their reasons and i don't want to tread where i'm not wanted. i can take a hint. and i'm also a little afraid of what i might find out if i ask why they haven't kept in touch. i can't think of anything i might have done to offend them, but then i can be fairly clueless at times.

maybe i should keep on trying - the only time you fail is the last time you try, right? i just don't want to seem like a stalker. but both of them were close friends and i do miss them.

which raises the question, when and how does a friendship end? i know there are people in my own past who i was once close to but haven't contacted in a while - matt, robin, jason, paul, mike. are those friendships over? i'd like to think we could pick up where we left off. so why haven't i? and why haven't they?

thus ends the question/answer part of our evening....

long weekend ahead. i'll be here at the school until after 10:30 tonight with the acting out...er...acting up children's theatre. another six hours to add to this weeks time card- nearly twenty-five total. be great when that paycheck hits.

candice is going to be in cincy tomorrow and we're hoping to hook up for lunch. then back here to mason for another fun-filled evening with the sanitized verison of grease. praise God for headphones. i'd like to go see the departed this weekend if i can find the time. probably should see the original first (infernal affairs), but i doubt that will happen.

i splurged a bit yesterday and bought the new U2 by U2 coffee table book. quite the tome - i'm looking forward to leisurely perusing it and reading their account of their remarkable career. loved what i've read so far - for rock stars, they're all quite articulate. definite must have if you're a U2 fan, but i'm not sure it'll make you like them if you don't already. you'll probably just write them off as megalomaniacal and not nearly as cool or important as (insert your favorite band here).

at least the show started at 7:00 and not 8:00, which means i'll get home a little earlier. finished up my grading, so now i can focus on those stupid essays i've been carrying around forever. must finish them this weekend, which is certainly doable.

enough for now. looking forward to getting home and watching the season premiere of bsg. here's hoping i'm not lost because i missed the end of last season.
