I have friends - don’t I?
Hey everybody it’s me, Scotti…
I jokingly told a coworker that if I didn’t have a need to get laid every
once in awhile I could get everything I need from the internet.
I should back this up and explain a bit. A few weekends ago I had a three-day
weekend from work. As luck would have it, I got sick. So I hung out at home
in boxers and a t-shirt all weekend. Armed with a few take-out menus and my
computer I was all geared up to rest. Yes, I have to prepare to get some rest.
(I am a little high strung!)
I had a blast. I played spades online at Yahoo--WITH REAL PEOPLE! That was
cool. We were playing cards and joking around. I had some cool partners. Some
were dorks but hey-it passed the afternoon.
I played email tag with some email contacts I have. I surfed the personals
at Yahoo for future dates… (wishful thinking). I listened to a ton of
music at Napster to see what songs I might want to buy for my new MP3 player.
I read reviews of new movies to see what I might want to go see. I read a million
blogs to see if anyone had a more interesting life than me. (no one yet…LOL)
I went ahead and wrote my Thursday blog for Penny.
I have a TIVO so I caught up on a ton of TV watching I never have time for.
I mostly watch the crime stuff like CSI, Law and Order (SVU), and Cold Case.
But in my defense most of these shows have some hot actress in it that I wish
would handcuff me!!!! I watched two movies ‘Closer’ and ‘White
Noise’. I got ‘Closer’ because I LOVE Natalie Portman, and
oh yeah… she is a pretty good actress. The movie was ok. ‘White
Noise’ had a crappy ending.
It was a good weekend after all. Until I thought about it. My cell phone never
rang once. Do I even know any real people (that I don’t work with)? Do
these people on the Internet count as friends? I have never met them or you
face to face. Does that matter?
Has this ever happened to you…your relationship goes belly up and you
realize you don’t have any real friends? Straight women have a million
friends that they do things with. They usually also have that one friend that
is their ‘best girlfriend’. Why can’t we do that too? Probably
because we end up sleeping with all our friends. Or is that just me? LOL
Am I crazy?
