The Year of the old girl friend.

I have unofficially declared 2009 the Year of the Old Girl Friend. They have really been coming out of the woodwork lately. Calling from different states and shit just to talk to me.

What's even more ironic about the situation is I never ever once thought that I had a good break up. It seems like the girl and I just sort of stopped seeing and talking all together. I never thought I was doing any of this intentionally but I thought I'd play along with it to make everything seem cool.

What is it about the sound of an old flame's voice that can take you back in some sort of time machine? Instantly you're 16 or 24 again and you're right back there. You are for a moment even emotionally back there.

I'm hearing good things about the old me I guess. I was always good to them, treated them right; the sort of things you'd want to hear from an old gal pal. But I dunno it just makes me think of all the reasons it didn't work out. It's a very nice happy way to start a good sad thought.
