A friend texted me at four asking if I wanted to meet for a drink at 6:00. I have been wanting to do just that with this person for so long!
But, I knew I had much more than two more hours of work to do, and I needed to go home in order to get it done (not hang around in the area where the bar is). So, I told her I wouldn't be ready to go out till eight and she politely declined. Oh well. Kind of sucky.
It seems so hard to have friendships these days! I mean in the sense of ongoing contact where you share your day, the latest updates of your life, and talk about life in general. I have so many long-distance friendships, and the friends I have in town may as well be because we all have such tight schedules.
If I ever do get married (have no idea), I would like it to be in the eyes of a loving community. That is the only way it makes sense to me anymore. Yet, it seems such a community is only in fairy tales. Where is my tribe? I need you.
This song fits my mood exactly, speaks a truth from the depth of collective consciousness: http://www.metrolyrics.com/future-reflections-lyrics-mgmt.html
