Call from a friend

Today my friend matt called me from iraq...almost didn't recognize the voice, but anybody who answers the phone with "hey sexy, how's it going?" i can usually expect to be one of my friends...heh. not that i think that all my friends think i'm sexy or that all my friends are in love with me...but that's how i usually talk to most of them, and they respond back in similar fashion. but it was very nice to hear from him...seeing as how i've only talked to him online on very rare occasions since he left. good thing i did have today off, or i might have missed the call. we talked about all sorts of things...his recent love of his life, who lives in new mexico, and my stupidity with butterflies. he found it very interesting indeed, that i went crazy like that...."i've never heard u talk about anybody like that before, ever...it's very amusing." i have to say though, that when i got a call from a "strange" nbr, i couldn't help but wish it was my other friend, "t" (name changed to protect innocent) from whom i haven't heard in so long it's not funny. very worried about him because of it...hope he's safe. so today i don't really have anything to do, so it's very possible i'll sit and write all day...i already did all the boring mundane things i needed to do today, but perhaps i'll stop by and see my fave bartender tonight...she said she would call last night after her gf's parents were not around anymore, but i guess either she forgot or that time never came...the first scenario=good for her...too "busy" with other things to "hang out", the latter = poor baby...she had to spend the entire day and night without using even one curse word...she'll probably need a drink later if that's the case.

several friends of mine are having birthdays in the next few days...one of em is my dad, and my ma felt the need to call me this morning and remind me...goes to show u, that everybody knows how terrible i am at remembering birthdays. and one of the various others is a person i met in wisconsin and tried to date for a while...even after i left wisconsin. but i'm not entirely sure that my relationship with this person matters much anymore, seeing as how he doesn't feel the need to contact me anymore...ever! chalk it up on the board, i guess...just one more on a long list.
