Ranting post- please beware.
I have had plans to go to Birmingham tonight, and stay, because a good friend of mines' boyfriend wanted to have his birthday party up there. He just got a job offer out of state, and I dont know what he is going to do- either move or stay here, so this could be his last outing in Alabama for awhile. My very best friend was going to watch Mere tonight, since Mere and her daughter are best friends, and I totally trust this family. Unfortunately, Friend called this morning with news that she would not be able to watch Mere, and this has left me in the lurch.
I am trying to find someone to watch her, but feel so uncomfortable asking someone to help, especially as this is more of a social thing- but I also really want to go... This is what I have always disliked about living here, away from all my family, so I have no one to ask other than my two standards- who are both otherwise committeed tonight.
Sorry about a rant post, I hate writing them, but need to get my frustration out somewhere.

Isn't it odd?
I was at Office Depot a little while ago, and while browsing through the ink cartridges for printers, saw a sale on the particular print cartridges that my former best friend uses. I was seriously dialing her number to tell her about it, when I figured out that we aren't speaking anymore.
Why is it that certain things remind us so much of people in our past?
This is not the first instance of something similar happening to me. For example, when a relationship went sour last year, everything I saw - from rental trucks to furniture brands reminded me of this person. It seemed that I could not get away from his name or something we had done together or talked about with each other.
Im interested in who else feels this way, so if you have any stories like this, just drop me a comment, and we can search the reasons together. (BTW- my mom tells me that it is just that our mind is more open to recognizing signs like this) Anyway, your thoughts?

Talented Blogger
My friend Gilligan has recently started a new blog on here with me, and I must say, she is a very talented writer. I always worry about someone reading my blog, and if one doesnt know me, and my way of thinking/talking, he or she might get lost. Im thinking about a mile a second, and half the time, my fingers (or mouth) can hardly catch up. I can be talking to you about one thing, and have ten different jumps in my brain activity before I finish a sentence. That is why Im always all over the place I guess. Also why Im good at my job. Anyway, Gillian has a way of speaking through her writing that flows evenly, and is not confusing. Its wonderful to read, and I just had to blog about it.
