i just got home from spending time with matt. yay!! i haven't seen him since october. its funny how so much can change in such a short amount of time. there was much to fill him in on. he's such a weirdo. he offered tips on curing my acid reflux by taking spoonfulls of vingar and gave me my birthday present. man, he's place is soooooo chaotic. i get super overwhelmed by it, it helps put the disorder in my room in perspective. i used to clean his apartment for him a couple times a year. he even paid me to do it a occassionally.

he's so funny. a lot of who i am is because of him. i'd say other than my family, matt and melinda have been the most influencial people in my life. but ya, a large chunk of my sense of humour was rubbed off of him. and some of my sayings and a few of my various laughs are from him too.

i admire how he finds everything funny, and that's one thing i picked up from him. at one point today i was saying "oh i just don't care... or i don't know, do i care? ya, i guess i do" and he laughed hysterically at this because he said it was like i was interviewing myself. like "i don't know les, i'll get back to you on that one..."

today when i was at my mom's for sunday lunch and was leaving to see matt, she said "we've missed matt, we haven't seen him in a while", so that just got me on a tangent about how frustrated i am that i never see him anymore. i think i've been so angry about that because it makes me sad and i've missed him. while we're kinda on this topic... i think its really weird how she always says "we don't approve of this" or "we feel that" or "we blah, blah, blah". it took me a long time to realize that her words didn't actually represent joy and tim thoughts, and it got me wondering "who the heck is this WE she keeps talking about?!?!?!" i still have no idea.

here's a pic of me and matthew at camp one summer. oh i guess that was in 2002. which would mean i was 22 and he was just turning 24. you can kinda see in this picture how long my hair was.

when we fall, love will catch us everytime time.
