Hey, happy day twenty five.
There was supposed to be an incredible Ultimate showdown today. Murray canceled at the last minute. So we're going to reschedule.
That's sort of a let down, but we're going to be okay. We really were ready to play. I've got to say that all six of us dressed up in our Taylorsville T-shirts do look pretty cool. We threw for a while and had a pretty good practice instead of smiting Murray, so I guess it was okay. This just means that we're going to get better before we actually play them. Ha.
It's 3:38 AM. It's a friday night, so it's technically okay, but I didn't have a substantial nap today, so this doesn't make a ton of sense.
I keep dreaming of a night when I'm going to bed early so I have a ton of time to write and study and do things that are important. I waste a lot of time. I know that I can't be one-hundred percent efficient, but still, I'd like to be better.
I did have a few thoughts about stuff today. I used to joke around a lot with Levi and James by saying, "Girls come for Levi, but they stay for James." I thought about that with our apartment here. I was looking and realizing that Kyle is doing a pretty good job of socializing. He's made more friends than the rest of us I'm pretty sure, and most of them are girls. Kyle's bringing them in.
Me, I'm not at all. I've made pretty much no effort to put myself out there. This has not paid off yet. But I've got this belief that I really am a pretty good person inside. And I think that I'm a pretty good friend, at least I try to be. I've got value. But I don't go marketing that.
So I was thinking about that. Kyle's got a lot of immediate value. He's out there being social. Does Kyle have long term value too? Absolutely.
I'm just saying, I don't think that I find or make friends really quickly. But the ones that I do make I care a lot about and hold on to. I'm a late bloomer, you could say.
I made a scale of bloomingness for the apartment. Kyle is first, Levi next, James, then me. Of course it's biased. But hey, at least it's some cop-out way of saying that I think I'm worth being friends with even if I'm not all that much fun the first time you meet me :)
Okay, it's late. I should have done more work today but didn't. It's time for me to head to bed, I hope you're all doing well. Much love, toodles.

Christopher J., for the record, you are definitely worth being friends with. ;) I think you're a great person, and I'm sure you'll meet some really great people that think you're really great.
