the more things change...
You tell me: is it 2000, or 2009? I spent the afternoon and evening sitting around Sarah's house, chilling with her, Nelly, Kat, and Tim. AKA, the high school gang (minus Jared, sadly). Kat, Tim, and Sarah still live around these parts (or live around here again), but somehow Noelle and I had awesome timing because she's in from Oregon.
So it was a lovely, nostalgic evening. I think I've known Sarah since... 3rd grade? 4th? I became friends with Noelle in 6th, and Kat and Tim in high school. I'm absolute shit at keeping in touch with people, as 99% of people who knew me in college have since learned, but it's nice to be able to come how and still find friends.
In related news, I drove! I haven't done that in three and a half years, and never liked it much to begin with. But out in the country, there isn't much to hit. Heh. But I managed to stay on the road, and even in a single lane. (In fact, I prefer it when there are lines on the road, so I can better judge where the car is.) But for some reason, the one thing I'm not intimidated by is driving at night, so the way home was surprisingly fine. (There are no such thing as street lights on 99% of Newfield roads. This town, for the record, does not have a single stoplight. It really is that small.)
So: nice evening. Drove! Home safe. The end.
Clearly, yesterday morning when I said "sporadic updates" or whatever, what I meant was "several times daily flist spam."
