No Friday five today.
I wasn’t fond of the questions, couldn’t come up with any really interesting answers.
I could always create my own, but… that requires more energy than I have at the moment!
So, what can I possibly discuss here?
How about writing about Amy? lol.
She’s a good friend. I mean we had hardly talked for over a year (just drifted apart, nothing between us!), and yet when she heard of a job, she thought of me, contacted me, and then let me move in with her! I mean... that’s a great friend, right?
It’s been a lot of fun getting to re-know her. Certainly things change over time. She’s not the same girl she was in high school. She’s a university educated accountant! I know I’m not the same girl I was in high school, I’ve quadrupled my weight.
We are good friends, there is very little tension as roommates. Certainly other roommates have been less accommodating than Amy has.
She’s a good girl, a smart girl. But she lets things get to her more than she used to. I guess it’s because she’s had too much disappointment. Or her standards are too high, or not what she thinks they are. I’m not sure what exactly it is, but it’s not something I can identify with.
She hasn’t had a boyfriend since last summer. She’s trying to lose weight before finding another one. She feels that the ‘real Amy’ is 120 pounds, and hates for people to think THIS is the real her. I’ve tried to convince her that she could have more fun if she wanted to! But alas, she’s set in her goal. I haven’t been ‘meddling’ at all, maybe I should? I could teach her the same joy of food that I’ve learned, lol.
Maybe I should invite a couple of our artists over for dinner sometime. Maybe something will happen, maybe not.
I don’t know. I guess I feel I owe her something, but since she doesn’t ask for anything, it’s hard to know!
