I've gotta be straight on this one. I almost completely forgot about this post. I have a test on a book tommorrow afternoon and as I still have roughly 160 pages left to read and its almost 2 in the morning, I really am not all that concerned about the whole deal. When DJDave came to me and said "Hey, do you have your post", my immediate respose was "ah shit, I totally forgot". My second response, mentally was "it'll have to wait" followed by "I could use a break in the reading". So here it is. You get to deal with the written study break from a tired, nic-fitting procrastinator.
I had dinner with Mia this evening and got a chance to catch up with her. We started discussing the site and its impact on various relationships, friendships, and events. She and I got to share our takes on the consequences of the site. I'm just thankful that my relationship has gotten off so easily. Dana stopped reading the site after last week's series of hostile postings. While it means that kissing up to my girlfriend in my posts is pretty much wasted, its looking like it is a good decision, considering that both her boyfriend and best friend are participants.
I got to talk to my high school friend Tony last night. He and Ron are my best friends from high school and with their summer school and work schedules, I didn't see much of them this summer. I passed on the musical recommendation from last week's post and we talked about how Ron is looking at medical schools based on where his law student girlfriend gets a job. Tony found this degree of committment a little disturbing and suggested engagement ring-control (as opposed to gun-control) because "anybody can walk in off the street and buy one of those things and ruin lives". Of course, these are both men who refer to reaching certain degree of physical intimacy as "winning the booby prize". That's just to give you perspective. Some of their friends at college and work think that they're nice guys, but I'm not going to kid you. They're pricks. They're just pricks that I know that I can count on.
Mike came back to visit again this weekend. I didn't see much of him because I was with Dana most of the time, but it really is great having him back in regularly. I had lots of other shit to say, but I figured I'd spare you full paragraph of rambling philosophical manure.
For a Fistful of Dollars,
Bill
