i miss my interesting lunches
every morning on my way to work, i plug in my earphones and i'm transported into a musical world of my own...
this morning finch's letters to you was playing... a song i haven't heard in a while... but where the lyrics always captured me...
"i want you to know that, i miss you, i miss you so"
and at that point i felt the pain of missing my not-so-platonic ex-friend. i nearly wrote him an email. i could certainly feel an email drafting in my head. but thankfully for these things, by the time i get to work and get caught up with other stuff, the feeling fades a lil. afterall i'm sure he wouldn't respond...

when i saw my family friend's setup come online just before noon, i decided to say hey. i haven't talked to him in what seems like a while and besides i'm usually the one to say hey. we had a bit of a chat bout what we were up to during the weekend (mine included meeting up with pool boy and some of his friends for a local gig. that was pretty fun.).
then somehow it wound up that i had to lunch alone. not that i mind 'coz sometimes i really like to get out alone to have my own space and clear my head. when i told my family friend's setup that i was heading out alone for lunch, he said that he always believed that lunch shouldn't be consumed alone. so i cheekily asked if he felt like driving out. in the end since he works nearby, he wound up picking me up for lunch.
though it wasn't too long a lunch, it was good fun as usual. we do absolutely get along. even if the conversation topic didn't go much beyond new jobs, running shoes and the difference in the age at which men and women peak sexually. i love interesting lunches.

Now I'm so completely consumes by jealousy, only the top of my head sticks out!
*aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh*
My lunches are taken in during conversation over weedwhackers, churches and what's in the local paper...
*sigh*
What a great lunch - and how very proactive of you! Hope it's the first of many!
As for the not-so-platonic ex-friend, give it some time. In my experience, there has always been a necessary re-programming period between the not-so-plantonic part and the resumption of friendship...
