so i've really been reaching out to some of my older friends recently, people who knew me when i was even less cool- and not so much reaching out so much as just returning phone calls, but i digress. these are people i never have to explain myself to, people who have a knack, much like myself, for just falling off the face of the earth every now and again, and dont ever really feel the need to apologize for it and it's a-ok, it really is, cuz the bunch of us are just sort of like that and we just get each other even if we only see one and other every two years or so, we just pick up where we left off, it's really, really, nice for someone as misanthropic as i am (/we are).
that said, lately i've been having coffee with my friend kelly on a regular basis, preparing her for her latest flight (or fall from the face of the earth) and she gives the best advice, really, like print on a teeshirt great advice, because she just doen't have time for other people's bullshit and shenanigans, you know? she just cuts right to the chase. so today she told me, "Life is short. Get a mullet."
