Sep. 21st, 2002 11:56 pmYeah, so no politics tonight. I swear. I promise.
Thursday night at Sal's, I ran into an ex-boyfriend from high school. I had about five boyfriends throughout the course of high school, but this was THE boyfriend in high school. We dated for about a year, which is known as a long term relationship at that age. It was a weird experience. Now, my vocabulary is pretty decent, but the only adjective I can come up with is weird. I was very very happy to see him. I can't tell how happy he was to see me. I hope he was. I had a lot of really great times with him back then. I can't believe its been ten years since we started dating, nine since we broke up.
Makes me feel old and cynical.
Not that I want to "rekindle" anything, I just would like to spend some time with him and see how he is doing. After we broke up, and after we went through the awkward post-dating, what-the-hell-do-we-say-to-each-other phase, we were very good friends for a couple years. Then I was away at school and his life got busy, and we lost touch.
I'd really like to regain touch.
But even if I don't, I am so very glad I saw him the other night. For lack of a better word, I feel like it gives me closure. Blarg. I hate that word. I'll have to come up with a better way to put it.
I was frustrated that he didn't call me back this afternoon or tonight, but I will twiddle my thumbs, try not to look anxious and hope.
I'm sleepy. Goodnight. *poof* I'm gone.
