almost ten years later

I have been feeling crappy since the other night. Ever since that drunken phone call I got. I just not have been in a good mood. This is the time when close friends know to stay the hell away from me otherwise they would be on the receiving end of a hissy fit.

Last night, I was in my worst possible state. I didn't want to bother my friends to vent my imaginary problems. They were either to far away to do any real good, or probably too busy with work and stuff. So I did what any stupid guy would do, I called up an ex girlfriend.

After a forty minute drive, there we were, having dinner at Burger King. All we did was talk. I drove her home, hang out for another thirty minutes or so, then decided to go out for a couple of beer. Four bottles and two packs of cigarettes later, we were back at her front door. I hugged her good night and went on my way (were you expecting some sleazy porn story? hahaha).

I'm just so happy about our friendship. After a very soap operatic (is that even a word?!) break up, at least we can still sit down, hang out and talk. She has become one of my closest friends. We can tell each other everything, things that we don't even tell other people, things better left unsaid.

I'm just happy that almost ten years ago,we made the stupid mistake of being a couple. We may not have worked things out the way we wanted it to back then, but without that relationship we had, I don't think we would have this special friendship we have now.

Thank God for stupid mistakes!
