If you click the date, you can post comments on my entries now. I think you have to be a blogger yourself, which limits things, but if you're so antsy, post comments on my xanga link "An Alternate Me."
Here's an update:
Talking to my dear friends is the best therapy a girl could ask for. Even better than the Cute Doctor Therapy I used to go to. So here's an ode to you guys who always lend an ear and hand out hugs. Each number will be followed by a sentence about a near and dear without mentioning their names. You can figure it out yourselves.
1. You're my current role model. I look at you, handling your hurts with an air of grace and style, and I want to know the secret. I'm glad we're in the trenches together. I've got a lot to learn from you!
2. You're honest to a fault. I need that. I know that you care about me, and it makes it okay that you're telling me what I'm doing wrong, even when all I want is sympathy. I'm glad that someone sticks by me no matter how much I fuck up.
3. I'm still not sure how we get along. But I'm glad we do. Few people have gotten to see me the way you have. We may be dysfunctional together, but I wouldn't give our history up for anything. Who else is backing me up with their dukes up?
4. Sometimes I love you, sometimes I want to strangle you. In fact, when we met, I hated you. But you charmed me and I haven't got rid of you yet. You call me gorgeous, and who wouldn't love that?
5. In an ideal world, I'd love someone like you. Enough like me to understand where I'm coming from, and enough different from me to show me a better way to live my life. I have my doubts as to where this friendship is going but I consider myself lucky to have found a friend like you.
6. Even though I left you, I still care about you. I can't believe all those years have come to a halt. We were inseperable until we grew up. It was necessary and I only have one regret: that you don't understand what you have meant to me.
7. I'm not sure why I'm placing you amongst friends when you are partially responsible for my therapy needs. But I do know I still love and care about you. I will carry our memory with a fondness.
8. Unexpectedly, you've become a close friend of mine. You have a wit that you're too aware of, but you're a good kid. Thanks for all those times when I needed to talk about nothing for hours.
9. Is this the descent? I hope not. Don't let one incident taint our wry and supportive friendship. Let's return to being above it all and loving ourselves through hating others. I miss it. A lot.
10. "You never disappoint me." You said that on a rainy day, while we were standing on a street corner. I swear I felt a ray of sun warm my cockles. I probably have disappointed you, but just like always, you say what helps me most in that moment.
When you write things about your friends, you get the idea about how many people care about you. This has been truly delightful.
