Dinner with an Ex...

Last night I went out to dinner with a bunch of friends from the Air Force. Tiffany set the whole thing up with a bunch of people from my old office. We were supposed to meet for dinner at Hapa Sushi and then go to a movie. Barring the fact that they were 20 minutes late, so we lost our reservation, it was pretty fun. I mean, I had fun at the time with everyone, but the feeling the morning after is the same as if you spent the night having dinner with someone you just broke up with. You want them to know how happy you are now, you want them to know what they are missing out on, but in the end you’re glad you’re not with them anymore…


All the same it was good to see Tiff. She seems more relaxed then I’ve seen her in a while. Being done with college agrees with her. Also, I had to pay for my parking in this weird machine that gave me $17 in quarters as my change. They guy in the booth was like, “What? It’s money isn’t it?” yeah…okay buddy…

I totally know the feeling. It's the same when I go back to PO, U of O also. I want people to know that I'm happy with my life, but without making them feel bad about their lives. By the by, I saw Derrick when I was home (he was cutting down a tree for my mom), he seems ok, but he told me to wait to have kids and make sure we have insurance (they didn't and are still paying on it). I also saw Maureen, she gave me the best PHS response to seeing me, she jumped out of the truck and ran over and gave me a big hug. She was all jumpy and smiley the whole time. She's teaching PE in Bend and seems to be doing really good. Ok, I'll stop before I take up all the comment space.
