So I got news today about an old girlfriend. She had a kid yesterday, and people were contacting me for my take on it. . .as if this was something newsworthy or what not. Well, for all who know me who read this blog, let me say this once: I am happy to hear that the kid is healthy and I wish them the best.
Did you catch that? Good, because that's all I'm saying about it. It's amazing to me how people want to "Falcon Crest" (great line, Bibbi!) a situation to add some sort of drama or spin to it. . .life goes on for everyone--I know it certainly has for me.
And who needs the drama anyway. I am 29, gonna be 30 in November. I don't need static or situations to boil over, especially from something over and done.
That said, I did feel a twinge of something when I heard the news--it was the same twinge when I found out two of my college roommates both had kids only monthes apart. Am I missing something?
The short answer is no. It will happen (or not) when it needs to--I stopped trying to catch up with the Jones' years ago. My life and what I'm doing with it is miles away from most of my old friends, and that doesn't mean one choice was better than the other--it means we chose different paths. . .the first bastard that even thinks Frost on that phrase should get smacked upside the head!
Life is life and it goes. . .
