mean people suck
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got a friend
(Rolling my eyes with sarcasm...)
So today on the way home from picking up the kids Zack told me that Michaela told all of her friends and his friends a secret about him that embarrassed the hell out of him. The only reason she knows this secret is because she's lucky enough to live with him. I am so mad at her I'm thinking about leaving her in the trunk while Obi-Wan Kenobi and I go trick-or-treating. (Instead, I think, I'm going to give Zack all of her candy.)
So I had to give them the friend talk...how sometimes friends, no matter how great and important they seem to be, will come and go. How one day you might be having a great time with someone and then suddenly they wake up and decide you're nothing...completely inconsequential, dispensible, replaceable. How you shouldn't take anyone or any time with someone for granted because you have no idea how much time you got. And how some people, no matter how awesome they seem, just might not care about your feelings. Get used to it kids, cuz if you think it hurts when someone disses you as a 9 year-old, just wait til you're an adult.

given the james taylor reference, could you be referring to a mutual acquaintance here?
nope, not a mutual acquaintance. but definitely the last person i'm gettin close to for a long, long time. what's the significance of the james taylor reference?
didn't you go see him with jamie?
ohhhhh...her. i did see jt with her once.
but see? funny how people who seem so important come and go.
And, then again, sometimes they dont.
well there's an opposing view, now isn't there.
you're right, glass-half-full-guy. then again, sometimes they don't.
