YES! I win!

I finally figured out how to spell N-E-C-E-S-S-A-R-I-L-Y all by myself... I'm very proud. Necessarily. I'm much cooler as a person now. Just, FYI.

Friends, the other white meat.

So I'm going to blog about my friends. All of them. Because I love them all.

(in alphabetical order)

Blalex- I call him little brother. I drive him home after every time we hang out. He's also the baby of the bunch at only 17. He is AMAZINGLY smart and intellectual. He's a great friend and says the best things at the best times. Just last night we had the best conversation about splicing humans with birds so we can make humans with wings. Smart I say, smart.

Gerry- Patrick's girlfriend, but more importantly, my friend. We have some amazing things in common: Sailor Moon, love of cats, and other things. She's a lovely hostess and always welcomes us into her home. Gerry didn't start in the original group of friends, but we are so VERY happy to bring in her in.

Izzie- My BFF. She'll be moving into Malia's apartment because otherwise she'd be homeless. We are looking to move in together. We confide in one another and find each other absolutely hilarious, two things I think are very important in friendship. Though she does lack in the observant category. (inside joke!)I will always come rescue her. And she will always do what she can for me. Together, we're quite a team. She's the best.

Ko- My personal ninja. Not really, but he is Japanese. English is his second language and this often times makes him feel shy, but once you get to know him well, he's a total crack up. Ko is hilarious. I can't imagine what our group would be like if we didn't have him.

Kris- I've know Kris the longest. My first impression of Kris went something like this, "Wow, that guy gives me some weird vibes." Now my impression is, "I love Kris!" I believe that this group of friends makes Kris be a little better. He is one of the smartest people I've ever met. Kris is great.

Kurt- He is the boy. THE boy. I am very VERY pleased to announce that I am over him. No left over feelings at all, except friend ones. I still think he is a rad kid and I'm happy to be his friend. I've recently been really mean to him. But now I'm ready for a truce. Kurt brings out the funny in me. He lets me laugh at the immature things in life, like poop on the board. And attending. And I'm pretty sure he isn't actually gay.

Patrick- He got a whole post to himself. Patrick is great. I visit him at work like, all the time. Tonight he will get to meet his hero, Bruce Campbell. For that I am happy. If you want to know more, see post below.

Tamsyn- My BFF. I recently spent almost 72 hours STRAIGHT with her. And after all that, I was not tired of her. In fact I MISSED her. She understands me. We feel like we are the SAME people as we have a butt load in common. She has some very weird idiosynchracies, which I recognize and appreciate. For example, she's bad at sarcasm and acts very underwhelmed even if she totally isn't. I'm glad to have her in my life. And I will ALWAYS be there for her. She's the best.

I love these friends. I LOVE THEM. They take me for who I am. I actually feel like they love me too. We've survived a failed attempt of two of us dating, among other stupid stuff. This attests to the strength and bond of us. I couldn't have better friends. I just LOVE having friends. I just LOVE making friends, and I'm continuing to make them. I can see Steve becoming a new friend, as well as Nathan. Erin is a blast. Satheara, a HOOT. People never cease to make me smile and amaze me (in a good way). I love people.

Check this out!!!

I'm really awesome!

I'm semi-famous.

I have failed lately...

at what? Important things. Like getting up in the morning to get to work on time. This morning I was a full hour late. I think it means that I need to spend more time doing the important things, like sleeping. I've also failed at being funny/amusing/interesting. I'm attributing this all to lack of sleep. You better believe that tonight, I'm not only taking a nap, I'm going to bed early. I also haven't been the nicest person lately, thereby failing to be nice. Especially to Kurt. Granted, he was a little bit of a butt-head to me, but that doesn't mean that I have to be a butt-head to him. So I won't be. I'll be nice. I've failed at banking. I recently overdrafted... twice. I fail at dating nice boys. I fail at having the appropriate amount of Christmas spirit, and was a big ol' brat about it a couple nights ago. I fail at being healthy. I eat at McDonald's frequently enough to notice a difference in the oil they fry french fries in. I haven't succeeded in being a good friend to those who've been my good friend.

But, I'm happy. Even with all these failures. Scratch that. Because of these failures. (at least some)

"What I'm Grateful For" a blog post by Caitlin Hite

I'm feeling rather grateful right now. Grateful for friends. More specifically, good friends. And most specifically, Patrick. He is the bomb when it comes to being a good friend. I feel inspired to quote the Aquabats. "Friends help each other anyway they can. If you're in a pit, they'll help you out of it." Pretty much I was in a pit last night. A pit full of pity. And Patrick grabbed me by the arm and helped me out. He helped me get over that boy the best way I think a person can. By fabricating awesomely hilarious rumors about the boy and then making strong cases proving them to be true. Obviously these rumors won't be spread around like peanut butter on a piece of toast. I'm not sure why I used a simile there, but I like it. Patrick is a super rad (another freaking Aquabats reference! I think it's a sign that I need to listen to them more...) friend. He's pretty much awesome. Much more awesome than any dumb boy.

So, about that boy...

he no longer likes me.

Merry freaking Christmas!
