i think today i will write about people. some wonderful wonderful people that have touched my life within the past week or so. in no particular order, or course.
let me tell you about someone special to me who is far, far away. waaay over in the land of meatballs, ikea, mats sundin (down with the leafs) & daniel alfredsson (GO SENS GO!), lives a male version of me. we're about the same height and weight; we share similar backgrounds; we have the same career dreams; we like the same sports; we have the same sleeping patterns; and we both really like talking on the phone. altho i think this person is absolutely nuts for many many reasons (and i tell him that he's crazy every time he calls), he's wonderful to talk to! i suppose we could save money if we each talked to ourselves since we're so similar, but it's still cool to talk to him. meatball, you're sooooooo special to me because you understand me like no one else does. with certain issues, i can rant to everyone else and they don't understand but they listen because i need them to listen and they know that all they can do for me is be an ear. i can rant to you and i'll only have to half-rant because you can finish the rant for me. you have the same rants!! thank you for being such a great friend...jag älskar dig... it was funny when dick asked "how do you two know each other?"...made me think how thankful i was that you and i have become such good friends, so i suppose thanks should be going to....
mr. knackered!! owner of all things that are lush! my number-one stalk target. you still hold the the prestige of being just about the only person who can make me cry (in good ways, of course). you have touched and changed my life in zillions of ways that i cannot even begin to explain, but i suppose most notably the night at the top of the stairs. when you're not busy kicking me out of your country, you are....you! there are no other words to describe it. you are one in 6-billion (or whatever the population is up to), and i am proud, pleased, and thankful to have you in my life...so where's my cd??
shout-outs also to the toronto-baller-geek. i know i already wrote stuff, but the more i think about my weekend in toronto, the more i remember the last night of tc 2001. chatting at megan's over taro (or was it almond?) bubble tea. you and i seemed to be the only ones that didn't go to urbana, so while everyone was singing songs we didn't know, we were chatting about stuff. i remember thinking that you were really interesting to talk to because of what you wanted to do with your life (aside from being an engineering geek). i'm glad that you and i kept in touch over the past year (and talked trash). what really sticks out in my mind is the conversation we had while walking to school. it's really encouraging to me what you want to do with your life, and after saturday night, i can see why. i can totally see your heart and passion for youth work and i think you'd be like one of those youth pastors that could whip all the kids in your fellowship on the ball court. : ) even tho you and i don't get much chance to talk to each other, and we see each other ohhh...once a year?... i'm still really thankful that you've touched my life too....so where's my cd??? (notice any trends here?)
svengo...y'think it was random coincidence that we managed to meet up in TO? just weird about the phone calls... you've had such a presence in my life in the past year and a half. you have a way of making even the most serious of situations funny (especially your reasoning every time i complain about having to lose weight). you've been like a big brother to me, except cooler! thank you for all the life advice and guidance you've given me, especially during all those middle-of-the-night studying sessions at school.
and last but not least, there's this crazy girl that's been msn'ing me just about every day this week. aside from her constant requests that i write about her in my blog, i think she's special too. i would've written about you anyway. : ) she reminds of myself when i was her age!! anyway, she's nuts, crazy, hyped, and enthusiastic! and that's what makes her special...that and she had the guts to stick a q-tip up someone's nose. : )
ok, those are my thoughts and my thanks to all you awesome people in my life. loads of rants today, so it's time to end! til tomorrow!
