He's Like A Detuned Radio

Boredom; just the thing to keep your mind racing at thousands of thoughts per second. This usually isn't a good thing.

How much of a friendship is based on the fact that you're stuck with each other over an extended period of time? It would be easier to be amicable than it would to be otherwise. Do I put on an obviously fraudulent exterior in order to keep the peace? It seems that I do.

I walk away from social functions often wondering what I've done to be thrown in with such a group of ill-behaved adolescents. Acting as if they were fifteen. I know that sometimes, we (Woburn folk) don't act in the most mature way. But underlying that is that when it's time to shape up and act accordingly, we do so. Something as simple as keeping your voice down or something more complex such as leaving a tip seems to be an issue. A tip of $0.00 isn't appropriate. Should I make up the balance of tip so that waitress isn't screwed over? Probably.

I guess the depressing thing is that no matter where I go or what I end up doing, there will always be people like this. The uncouth, the ignorant and the idiots.

I miss you all.
