I don't know what it is...I've changed so much since last year.
Last year, Bobby and I were the ones excited about getting a house in the next couple of years. Now...well, he's hoping to get a new job, which will mean a pretty big pay cut, and I don't even care. I think of cars and houses and stuff and...*shrug*
Ah yeah, I recognise this. Even though you are happy for that person, it feels like a world apart. I am still trying to pay attention not to talk about Kevin with others too much, because.. yeah. He's such a big part of my daily life. But now I have more time to do other things too, but it will never be the same, it just slips in the conversation. Years ago I was happy with a roof above my head and a place to call my home... now I stare outside and look at the jungle that is my garden (can't you send Feanoro over, Maglor is really not interested..), but we're now looking around for a house which will fit our future needs.
Because the geniuses who govern the roads closed one of the biggest roads in the area, detoured traffic onto the biggest road in the area, and didn't think to adjust the light so that more than three cars could turn onto the detour at one time.
Eugh sounds like my town where you can sit for 20 min idle in the car while your home is 5 minutes away.. no wonder that I cycle so much!
Since I was already bordering on grumpy, I turned up my music to match his. So here he is, cool and listening to rap. Here I am--hair to my bum and tangled from blowing in the wind, wearing a tie-dyed shirt and my clunky school-marm shoes from Payless--blaring the Lord of the Rings soundtrack.
LOL! I love this visual *grin* I haven't played the soundtrack for months!
But you know, maybe you changed, but maybe that is the exciting thing of life: you go forwards, sometimes unnoticed, sometimes forced, but you learn new things, come across new people, or friends change along with you too.. :)
