soundtrack: the tonight show
today i started off listless and antsy. i was bored and most desperately wanted to do something. so when mom suggested working out at the local bally's, i was more than ready to go. energy emerged from my sluggishness as climbed back on the circuit machines. now, i'm sore (already!) but i feel great.
it was late in the evening and i was showing mom what each weight machine did and how it worked. from the corner of my eye, this guy walked in to the weight room area. i knew he looked familiar, but i chose not to approach him. i didn't even think he would remember me anyways. but he did and he came over. [side rant: i think the only reason why he even remembered me was because despite it all, i still look the same... and i should just deal with the fact that people from elementary through college will stop me on the street because i will NEVER EVER look different! you don't even know how annoying that is...] he was animated... i guess he has to be if he's a motivational speaker. as he asked me the standard 'haven't-seen-you-in-X-years' questions, my brain pulled up the file on LS. we went to the same middle school and were in the same leadership program in high school. he didn't really do well academically, dropped out (or was kicked out) of the program and he seemed a little lost the last two years, but i didn't really notice. i was off in my AP classes and doing my internships; i was running with another crowd. he's doing well now, with the motivational speaker thing (he finally got the business he wanted, even though it wasn't a kfc) and as a student at umcp. he gave me his card, "drop me an email...we'll do lunch!" i almost scoffed. this dude didn't know me. was he trying to pick me up? ironic being that i used to have a crush on him. i don't know. i'll email him though. there are infinite possiblities.
i'm trying to figure out what i want to do for the last three weeks of freedom i have left. visit people, maybe go to some dc museums, calling people i haven't talked to in awhile (T and ash). i talked to nic yesterday;she's back in town from jet setting all over the country. she still hasn't heard from the grad program that she applied to. nic and the boys are going to do something soon.
i also had a good talk with jam. a nice, long, thought-provoking conversation. i can honestly say that jam is one of the few friends and one of the only guys that i completely trust. we talked about everything and some more. i love that boy from the bottom of my heart. i love you jammy jam.
anyway. i'm sore and tired, so i'm going to sleep.
peace.
