I am an appendix.
When it comes to circles of friends, I always end up feeling like the human appendix. You know, a remnant of evolution that keeps hanging around, and nobody knows why? Do you know what I’m saying?
It’s like this… A group of friends start out pretty tight, and doing EVERYTHING together. Everything is awesome! Then someone gets a boy/girlfriend from outside of the circle, and tries to pull them into it, and often it just doesn’t work. Or worse, 2 people from within the circle pair up, and they end up doing their own thing together, while still rolling with the crew. For example, your circle of friends goes to the county fair together, but then the pair wants to check out the tunnel of love, and everyone else in the group wants to go to the rodeo and it ends up being not such a great time.
And then before you know it, everyone from your circle of friends is paired up with someone, except for you. Everyone else’s friendship has evolved, except for yours. And you’re there, trying to organize a snowboarding trip for the crew like back in the day, but it’s not coming together because by now they have kids and in-laws they need to entertain, and you’re left feeling like an appendix.
the end.

almost the prodigal son.
If I were a better son, I would be in Othello Washington right now.
Instead, I’m about to go paint the town red once again. Because that’s how I roll, I guess.
Here’s a picture from Family Xmas one year ago.
