"The refuge that you've built the flee, the places that you've come to fear the most, is the place that you have come to fear the most" - 'The Places That You've Come To Fear The Most' - Dashboard Confessional
Well the weather has returned to shit today. Yet somehow I have retained my comparative good mood. In the interests of keeping this in someway interesting I'm going to go through the people who matter again and talk about their current roles in my life and that kinda thing. So far Don is the only person to have complained about his description earlier so let's see if I can rattle a few more cages huh? :-p
Bob: Bob has been on the missing list all week. This is a bit perplexing especially as he turns 21 on Friday and I don't wanna shell out for a present in case he's been murdered or something! :-p Actually I'm gonna text him now and see if he responds by the time I'm done. Ok I've sent the text. Personally I suspect that he's given into pressure from his Mother, cut his hair and is afraid of me bollocking him out of it. Which I probably will. Because his hair had gotten all nice and fluffy after all. I live with Bob so it's a fair bet to suggest that he'll have a role to play in the next few weeks and months.
Brian: My brother and I are about to defy convention and actually hang out for the second time in a week tomorrow. Which is good. Because we get on famously after all. We is working on one of my songs at the moment and it sounds good. Which is also good. Brian, like me, is wasting his time in Limerick at the moment but for now at least that means we should get to hang out and generally sprawl for another while yet.
Cack: A new entry who has been in touch quite a lot of late (in truth I suspect it's solely so that she gets mentioned here :-p). Anyways, I used to live with Cack (or Cat. Or Caithriona to be precise). She's gonna be back in Limerick very soon (in fact she's visiting today) so we'll probably end up getting better reacquainted after she spent the last year in Newcastle West and somewhere in the USA respectively.
Dave T: He's gotta be back to work in the next few days. Dave works as a teacher so we can almost rely on the kids poking fun at his hair behind his back and some of the bolder ones perhaps 'accidentally' calling him "Mrs.Tobin". They'll only do it once though because Dave is a sadistic disciplinarian to be honest with the kids. Though he's surprisingly compassionate about it all beneath the surface. Dave is probably gonna be in Limerick for the rest of his life so it's a safe bet that he and I have got a few more meetings within us.
Don: Well I live with Don too so I'm gonna see him in a coupla hours (though he's going home to his Mammy later on). In the longer term though Don is looking at pissing off and actually making something of his life so I'd better make the most of him while I can. Granted I'm still thinking of moving myself after Christmas so it might all be irrelevant but anyway...
John: I don't actually see John as often as I should given that we both live in Limerick (granted he lives miles away on the other side of the city) but we've been through enough shit together that we always just about manage to stay in touch and I can't see anything changing that anytime soon.
Katelyn: Well already the fact that we live quite far apart has already been lamented but I figure we've got a few miles in the tank yet. I'd like to think that we'll still be in touch in the mid-term at least but we shall just have to see won't we!!? I would like to meet her dog though! Oh the suspense of it all is killing me (or maybe it's the way I'm sitting). :-p
Liz: Is going back to Scotland today so e-mail will be my only way of contacting her for a while. Well, that and her mobile. But anyway I digress. Unless I motivate myself sufficiently to actually move and unless Glasgow overcomes London and Cork as potential destinations then I'll probably see very little of her until next summer. Though I must confess that due to a myriad of factors I didn't even see very much of her this summer.
Niall: I think that there will always be a Dar & Niall thing going on. We've endured seperation before after all! And we always find our way back. In fact with the greatest of respect to all of the ladies who have touched my life things would probably have been a hell of a lot simpler were Niall and I both gay! Curse this heterosexuality! :-p In short, regardless of where either of us end up, myself and Niall will be alright.
Rob: Rob is another guy who I suspect will still be there when we're both cranky old men. He's that kinda guy. And I like to think that I might be too. Which augers well for trips to Kilkenny in 50 years time I suspect.
Sorcha: Is teaching on the Aran Islands so if I stay in touch with her it'll be impressive. I wouldn't rule it out totally though. Can't imagine we'll be on the phone once a week or anything but we'll drift in and out of each others lives from time to time.
Trev: Trev is the kinda guy who probably secretly hopes I do move so he can take advantage of free holidays! :-p Granted he's just back from America and heading to Madrid this week. So while I might not see a whole lot of him before then, afterwards I'm sure we'll catch up again. Like we did this week. Yay!
Damn, how the hell do I manage to juggle you all? And to be honest there's loads more people I should mention but I haven't because I'm lazy and I know they won't read this. And maybe it'll make you guys feel special and it'll all have been worth it. It's nice to make a difference! :-p
