Growing up I was always able to be friends with anyone, even more so if I felt you were the underdog, I would befriend you. I knew this girl who was the sweetest person in the world, but she used to get teased because she smelled like pee. I was one of her friends and I slept over at her house and her room smelled awful, like she had a bed wetting problem. I learned that she and her brother basically took care of themselves, they lived in a nice home and they always had lots of food, but their mother was a raving alcoholic, it wasn't her fault. I wish I knew what became of her.

Anyway I just wanted to say that.

well, he replied and he was very cool about the whole thing. he told me he didn't remember saying that and thinks he didn't, but can't be sure b/c he was on so many drugs at the time (and went on to list them). then he said if he did say it he apologizes, and he thanked me for bringing it up. SO i guess it's all good. that is part of why i was careful in my email to him not to be like "you motherfucking asshole blah blah blah..." i feel so relieved that the air is cleared.

you know, as far as regretting high school things, there was this girl i was friends with, and she drove me crazy. i sat w/her fresh or soph year b/c i had no one else to sit with, but she and i had nothing in common. she would get offended if anyone cursed which if you know me, well, lol. my mouth was even worse back then. so one day i picked a fight w/her b/c i didn't want to be friends anymore. it was ridiculous really, and there are nicer ways to go about it for sure, and if i saw her now i would apologize.

other than that there is not too much, not cuz i was super nice or anything, just quiet. plus i think i felt too low on the social ladder, like i couldn't afford to be really mean to anyone. although that guy steve and i both put up with a fair amount of shit from the other, and i once told my neighbors' each other's secrets, now that was a lesson, lol. my big prob back then was being friends with people i didn't really like, just cuz they were the only ppl willing to be my friends, and i think i was too afraid of being completely alone to really "be myself" so to speak. and i'm sure i talked about some of them behind their backs, and also sure it went both ways. almost like whoever wasn't around at a particular time would get talked about. pretty shitty if you think about it. sometimes i eel like i wasted a lot on that, and had to later relearn like how to make friends with thegood people and how not to get too mixed up w/ppl you're not interested in just cuz they give the time of day in a nice voice.

anyway the feeling of the lifted weight is enormous. i am soooo glad i said something.

lump i can't believe the comment about the skirt, (or the "gives good orals" omg) that's awful. and what is a slam book? i also had a friend amy who was heavy and man, she totally got ripped apart too. hs is like a dog eat dog world out there, no one survives it totally intact.

btw i've also had two ppl apologize to me in later HS for things they did earlier, and one of them i had never even remembered him doing anything specifically. we were friends for years after that, until he sorta went off the deep end with occult stuff, and i do mean deep end.
