Ok, so this time I did something crazy and totally not cool. I decided that with my new-found free time in conjunction with my GPS device, that I am able to go places. Problem is the message that I was coming from one place and going to another was badly placed on my part. So as I write, I am in the Swem Library in Williamsburg. Now, for those of you who know me, you probably think you know why I am here, and maybe even why I stayed up all night to leave around 4:30 am on this journey... Well your right and wrong. But mostly you are right.
Note of the wise "distance helps relationships"
Note of the fool "dropping in unexpectedly on an old friend who lives multiple hours away from your house is not a good plan for a spur of the moment thing... and the car ride gives you lots of time to realize this... lots of time..."
But yes, I went south east for the only person I can easily say I'd travel for. We have decided to try and rebuild things from the ground up, starting back at basic friendship. Next comes the old "your momma" jokes, shortly followed by the "that's what she said" phase which occurs directly before the good old "advanced avionics" phase... or was it the tachyon deflector inversion technique (also known as the "Jordy" maneuver)... And then last, actually hanging out and talking. We already went over the cone of silence, which I think was a good place to start. However I botched the whole thing (or almost did) by my random need to pick up and move cross state at unholy hours of the night. But she was kind to me (which was really lucky since I not only dropped in unexpectedly, but also woke her up on her day to sleep in and disturbed the schedule). But she is an angel (Truth: I remember how to not misspell angel from my common error angle because I tell myself that "Angels be Gellin Yo!" like in the Dr. Shoals gell inserts commercial... and if I sell that idea to the advertisers I could make MILLIONS... of yen... maybe).
Well, I know it will take time but I hope from my blogs, my personal crazy, and from my personality as seen in person you can all see that I have made much progress in the ways of becoming a better man in the past few years. And in forging a better outlook on life and a stronger backbone... more rubber for the construction materials and more glue for the cannons :P
... ok so maybe I'm still the same old cheezy sap I used to be... Get over it, the cheeze is not going away anytime soon!
I have to wonder about the word forge.... it can mean so many things... nouns... verbs... related to metal and mettle... oh well...
