You know sometimes life is funny. I mean that in a way where little bitty happenings make you giggle and laugh. You read an interview about a band and are shocked by what is said and again you chuckle. Talk to an old friend like I did today and you realize why you always liked them so much. Its also funny how you both grow up! My friend Steven Collier a.k.a. Stick and I spoke for probably the first time in two years or more. We went to Angelo State together and actually lived together in Odessa for a brief period of time. I called him to ask if he was coming to the wedding. I found out that he and his wife are having their third child. Also for a third time his wife Cindy is bed ridden. I guess whats funny is that I really had very little to say to stick. I mean we exchanged pleasntries and asked about respective family happenings but considering the time that has passed since we talked I had very little to say to him. The same seemed to be true with him. We searched for things to talk about. Stick obviously with his family and work has other things to worry about. I know that if we were thrown in a room together with some booze old times would be hashed up and the experience would be recognized as a great success. Today though I must admit I am a little mixed in my feelings. It was nice to talk to him but im a little sad hes not coming to my wedding. For a good 2 or 3 years man Stick, Zach and I were the best of amigos. Now its just Zach and I. I guess stick was always standing on the outside of the circle. All he ever wanted was to get married and start a family. Mission Acomplished. I really have no where else to go with this. I’m just confused internally. He said it made his day to talk to me, I wish I felt the same. I sort of feel like an iron and wine song. Slow acoustic with great lyrics that haunts you and, makes you feel sad. That’s all I have to say about that!
Tonight Sara and I get to go taste catering food. Should be an exciting experience! I hope a tasty one as well.
