...I won't always love what I'll never have, I won't always live in my regrets
So as much as I bitch and moan about how I want to give up, I just can't. Corey came over last night and opened up to me regarding some issues that have been bothering him. I talked with him and tried to make it apparent that as much as I want to try to solve his problems, he's on his own with this, I will just be there for moral support. I had a conversation with my mom regarding it all and she made it obvious that he probably regrets not having me around as that voice of reason. I was always there to question motives and remind him of the retributions of his choices. Now I'm the one who listens to the complaints of the retributions...and tries to hold back the 'I-told-you-so's and the 'See-what-you-are-missing-out-on-now's. I'm not much of the gloating type, but hey...I'm allowed to this time, right?
I went to my alma mater's football game tonight. It was alumni band night - meaning a free football game for me. Four years of marching band makes me part of something far larger than just an old has-been. The alumni band comes back every year for the homecoming game. It was pretty fun. We won 20-15 over the team who was supposed to blow us out. Hee hee. After the game, we had a little dessert "banquet" type thing with cookies/doughnuts/cakes. I was then invited to a local ice cream shoppe for the alums to get together. I went and was one of 4 band alums. We ate ice cream and chit chatted. As we were getting ready to leave, I had my wallet ready and hear that the eldest alum paid the entire bill...all $63 + tip of it. HOLY CRAP!
I thanked her and tried to pay her back but she refused. I enjoy free things.
Anyway, I'm tired, I have work tomorrow morning. Get some sleep, lovelies. Goodnight. |
