shine on

Thursday morning I'm meeting a friend I haven't seen or heard from since high school for coffee. Crazy. MySpace is very good for things like that. He found me.

I am a person who needs space. I realize this more and more. I like social stuff, but it wears me out and then I need quite alone time to recover. When you're being social you have to watch what you say and do. I much prefer to be able to drink from the orange juice carton and not have to monitor what I think and feel for fear it might hurt/offend someone. Maybe that's selfish, but I prefer selfish and honest to fake and shiny.
