The Wrong Side of the Zen: On Friendship

frank said...: awwww... I <3 you to buddy ;-). Its funny to think about how I meet all my friends, most in high school, the only time sence RBV that Ive made friends was at the theater where i worked for 3 years, and thats makes sense. Thats a lot of time in proximity with the same group of people. I often ponder what my life would be life if a different job had called me back first, I never would have meet Corinna, I never would have falling in love with her or had to deal with her death... the list goes on and on... The way Ive always looked at my friends is, they are the people that for some reason can put up with me for extended periods of time, and who am i to be picky....; June 19, 2008 at 1:32 PM

Other than that, my high school friends were mostly people that I went to middle school with. One of my absolute best friend I'd known for three years before I talked to her, and we only started talking because she had to sub in for Bari Sax in a song we played for festival.
And then there's people I've become friends with because I've delivered to them so often, and that's very interesting to think about. Had I gotten stopped at a red light, someone would've gotten back to the store before me and I wouldn't have taken a certain delivery and met these people.; June 19, 2008 at 9:34 PM
