Dear Dana,
Following in the vein of school chums, you are another I must address. When I met you in Taver’s class I thought you were the most adorable piece of awkwardness I had ever laid eyes on. I do not mean this in the patronizing way that is what “awkward” is code for. I mean in the fashion that you were a person surrounded by creatures of such a bazaar nature that it was all you could do to stay afloat. I may be over reaching here but I too felt like I was on the wrong planet at the Western.
I often get told “You remind me sooooo much of someone I know” or “I know someone you would really like” which to me is pretty offensive. I am fairly frank about my personality, I know what I am like for the most part, ergo someone that I would like is probably not some one that I would like if you get my meaning. Anywho, you did remind me of someone when I met you, just not anyone I have ever met. You reminded me of a character in a book, most likely one by either Salinger or Sedaris: quirky, interesting, and sincere in way that doesn’t make me want to choke someone.
I have know you for a while now, if you can count the brief meetings we have here and there. One of the things I like the most about you is that no matter how frequently or infrequently we talk we always (well me at least for sure) seem to be on a slightly different frequency. Sort of like a phone call with a delay. We stumble over each others sentences. We pause often to see if the conversation has finished, as if we need to check to see if the timer has gone off or something. I like this because due to my particular (peculiar?) personality conversation with most folks becomes all to predictable all too soon. That’s good…that’s all.
FB was just a formality between you and I, neither one of us really use it to contact one another so, I think we will be just fine without it.
Today was a great day, but tomorrow our FBfriendship will end,
Curt
