Dear Amy,
While I will say right up front that in the dusty mess that is my mind I have positive feelings about you as a person, I must admit I remember just about nothing about you. I know I went to school with you. I assume you were in the middle-to-bottom tier of the PHS hierarchy of popularity much like myself. Other than that I blank. Which is not surprising seeing how little I remember of my school career. I don’t know if it was some form to traumatic suppression, or maybe just constantly subjecting myself to daydreaming which I believe replaces actual memories with ones of my own creation.
One of the reasons that Facebook and I are parting ways is that I have often struggled with exactly how much stock to place in “friending” someone. On the one side I used to take facebook less seriously, and basically who gives a shit about whether or not to friend someone. On the other end its living with that decision day-to-day in theory forever. I am fairly sure that is the reason we ended up friending. See I can’t even say you friend requested me or I friend requested you, not wanting make this seem like it was initiated by either of us. Neither one of us probably gets much out of this, and in some way I think in order for this whole social networking thing to have any value to me, I actually need to care about it somehow.
That being said, there are many people on here who I assume are friends with me not because they actually care, but merely because that is what one does on facebook, and that blows. I extend as always the opportunity to keep in contact, just drop me a message and I will respond. And THAT being said…
Today was a great day, but tomorrow our FBfriendship will end,
Curt
