So its been a while since I've posted.... Every time I have both the time and inclination simultaneously I don't... I've come to dread writing blogs for fear of who I may or may not offend, piss off and/or just in general make unhappy... And thats not cool... People are becoming entirely too damn sensitive in some cases... Having a keyboard in front of me and the anonymity of the internet in my favor could be misconstrued as ways to pretend I'm 'powerful' in some form or fashion.... I'm not I know I'm not and I'm fine with that and in general cool with my place in the world.... Sure I don't have a job right now, but I have good friends, good times, a sweet dog, my own place and a kick ass family.... Most of what I say in my blogs... I'd say to peoples faces... MOST... Not all.... There are things I've written that I've found out haven't been true and it was my mistake for posting or my opinions of people changed from what I may have written.... But for the most part I'm as brutally honest in person as I am on the internet... Though I've been trying to work on being more subtle with my honesty... Thats been a work in progress for years...


Anyway, on with the 'real' blog entry.... Which is the whole reason I'm posting a blog in the first place.... After like a week of not posting anything....

So all weekend I've found myself missing things about college... Before I missed simply the easiness of life in college... This weekend I've found myself thinking about people I met there, the town itself, places to eat, even the damn Walmart and itty bitty movie theater.... I've shocked the hell out of myself thinking that way this weekend... I NEVER thought I'd miss Clarksvegas... Let alone anything in it.... But I found myself wanting to kill something for a pizza stick from Dodge's and one of Wanda's "Be careful, honey..." 's Friday night.... Which led into thinking about Walmart and the Waffle House... And the fountain drinks at the Philips 66.... And the pizza at the Exxon.... And then tonight I asked the question... What would I do for an order of cinnamon sticks from Pizza Pro right now? You don't want to know the answer to that one.... I did actually go online and look up Pizza Pro and since the last time I checked there IS one in Houston (actually like 2 but the others out in Katy off Fry road...) about 20 minutes from my apartment... Yeah, guess what I'm having for dinner? lmao... And then I started thinking about alumni weekend... Which I thought was in October, but is actually in April... Oops... Then I started thinking about how much fun it would be if there was one weekend (whether it was alumni weekend or not) where we could all just get together and hang out like we used to.... Which led to lots of emails being sent to a lot of people I know that went to U of O.... The general idea was something like this...

(copied and pasted email I sent out)
I'm just thinking right now about this... I don't know if its actually a possibility or not since everyone is so spread out over the entire country and we all have responsibilities and things now...

I was just wondering what yall thought about a weekend where we could all get together somewhere where itd be a compromise for everyone for a weekend and just hang out and catch up and stuff?

I know U of O has a formal "Alumni Weekend'' in April but I dont know how many people plan on going to that yet... I'm just feeling out the idea of some place where all of us could meet and hang out and stuff, since we hadn't seen each other in a while...

Any opinions? Doubts?

Yeah so now I'm just awaiting any response.... I'm expecting a lot of you so crazy's and theres no way in hell we can get that done's.... But ya never know... There may be a managerial genius among my friends from college....

It'd be really cool if all my old friends, that had already graduated when I had to go back for a semester, and all my new friends, those that I started hanging out with that last semester, could all get together... I think they'd all have a blast.... But that sounds more like an alumni weekend at U of O thing or a wedding would have to be held to get that done.... Anyone want to get married so I can see all my friends? rofl..... Great reason to tie the knot right? Marry me, so I can hang out with my friends.... lmao...

Anywho I think I'm off to bed... I'm decked for some reason...

Later.
