So this is Christmas

If you had friends who you think would not maintain the relationship if you didn’t make it a point to stay in touch with them, would you still consider them friends? I’ve been tossing this thought around in my head a lot. Maybe I’m not as close to some people as I think I am. Friends I’ve met on-line seem to care more about me than people I’ve known for an extremely long time. Are they just going through phases and sorting out their lives, as I did when Marie and I were in the middle of our lovey dovey phase? Or are they politely making a point to not put forth the effort because they don’t want to? Am I in a position to call them out about it or do I just continue to suffer?

So many questions.

Tonight will be the planning of Spring Fucking Break Roadtrip 2002. I think we’re going to hit up both the Football and Rock and Roll Hall(s) of Fame. Bring on the open road. I’m not sure how long of a trip it’ll be from here, but hopefully we can get a deal on a rental car and find not-too-sleazy hotels to stay in. In any event, it should be rokken like Dokken.

When I was younger, I thought that Santa Claus used rich people to take on some of the financial burden of buying all the toys for girls and boys. Honestly. I was a socialist from a very early age. I remember my brother and mom laughing when I told them that was my explanation. So it goes.

I’m all in favor of banishing the jolly red man and having an ‘exchange’ Christmas. Think of all the people with extra ‘stuff’ that they could simply exchange instead of having to go out and buy new stuff. A big effing swap meet using no currency, only bartering.

I might be in the process of getting a CD burner soon, so maybe I can zap you out a copy. So good it’s golden.
