This post its dedicated to LD, as we have had this conversation MANY times.

I know this post should be for the last 2 weeks, but lets be honest...I drank way too much this week, and cant remember that far back.....but I digress.

This week *as much of it as I remember* I:

- Picked up my new degree...its pretty. As pretty as the one they shredded, except this one, has to program names on it, not just one.

- Saw a car that looked exactly like the Starsky and Hutch mobile...it was the same car, painted the same way, and for the first time EVER, I wished I had a cam phone....

- Studied....i have my language final tomorrow....ive been going over verb conjugation in my head for the past 2 days....I still have a lot to do, but thats what today is for, and i have all day tomorrow, I think i'll do okay. I just have to get to the library and stop procrastinating.

- Had a friend over a couple of times, he's got so many episodes of Whose line is it anyway ripped off the net....we watched for HOURS....literally....my eyes were burning.

- Woke up at like 1:30 yesterday, after being out and about until almost 6am. Flipped on my computer, my friend was having a BBQ at her place with loads of her friends, I showered, hit the liquor store and was on my way. I hadnt even been up an hour and I was already drinking at a friends place....I LOVE summer. But I digress. Yesterday, I got to hang out with an entire group of friends, a group other than my own.

I know the dynamic that exists within my group, and we usually giggle about it, and wonder if all groups of friends are like ours. Well, today...my dearest LD, I have the answer. You know how there's that joke, that every group of friends has one person they dont really like, but are just nice to because they're part of the group? Well, EVERY PERSON in this group of friends, was that person. They all bitched about eachother, gossiped about eachother. When one would stand up, and go inside, they'd all roll their eyes, and complain.

All the friends brought their fiances, and very very small children. One of my friends friends, was pregnant....she told me the baby was moving, grabbed my hand and pressed it onto her stomach, and honestly, it grossed the shit out of me, and i pulled my hand away as fast as possible, stood up, and sat at the other side of the patio.

Now, there were a couple of older kids there, but not older than 9.....sticky dirty children, and they all knew my position on how I feel about kids relatively early in the night...but I of course, was nice to the kids, got things for them, talked to them blah blah blah. One of the bitchier girls says "you know, for someone who doesnt like kids, you're really nice to them"....I looked at her and told her the truth. "If you do nice things for them, its easier to manipulate them, and get them to do things for you"

As this girl had three of her own, she was horrified....but not as horrified as I was, when she felt that it was necessary to tell me that she had a boob job, and then flash her shit all over the place.

Hanging out with these strangers, and watching them interact with eachother, made me miss my friends that much more....I cant wait to get back to my group....where if you have something bitchy to say, you say it right to the person....your response is usually a hearty fuck you, and an eye roll....and then its forgotten. You know, at one point, we joked about how we were all still friends, only because we were too lazy to go out and find new ones. But yesterday, I realized, that compared to the group that I hung out with....my group genuinely cares about one another...and as much as we bitch, and joke about finding new friends...not only am I too lazy, I dont wanna....my friends are the best. :) AWWWW
