For those of you lacking, the title's a The Lion King reference, gosh!

Anyways, I just wanted to talk about this lunch I'm having in a few days. It's with two of the people I was good friends with in high school--a part from Mike and Steven.

Katy and Gracey and I were very good friends in school. I haven't talked about Gracey before on here, but I know I've mentioned Katy. She's the one who stole all of my money after I tried to save her life.

Good times.

I've got this problem. It's called a malfunctioning personality. See, if people piss me off I do a few different things, either 1) Forget about it right away because I just don't care enough to spend that much thought on the ass-hole 2) Dwell on it for a day or two, just stewing in my anger and hatred, and then forget about it. Generally I just let things go because, ya know, I really don't care that much.

Katy, on the other hand, stole over a hundred dollars of mine after I tried to save her when no one else wanted to. This was...2 and a half years ago. About a year later she tried to get back in touch with me via myspace messaging. I gave her some short answers and ultimately ended it all by telling her I couldn't hang out because I was busy and only had time for my good friends, haha.

Anyways, fast forward to about...eh, a couple months ago. I'm walking willy nilly to my Japanese class at Edmonds and who happens to be walking ahead of me?! IT'S KATY! dun dun DUUUNNNN!!!! She doesn't see me--I don't think--and I just can't believe it...I mean what are the odds?

Later I got curious, wondering what she had been up to. It's been strange, like, I know I should really hate her cause of all that crizzap, and I did for a long while, I just don't anymore. It's frustrating.

So fast further forward, I started messaging her a couple weeks ago, and we've been catching up since.

*sigh* Wtf is wrong with me...

Gracey on the other hand was always pretty cool. I haven't seen her since...she joined the coast guard. Haha, I never would have thought she'd join the coast guard, she always -appeared- to be the sweetest little girl ever. I guess it's a little different now with the tattoos, piercings, and the long bleach blond hair that's now chopped up and died black. Aaaahaha, funny where life takes people.

So, the moral of this story is that I'm meeting these people who I no longer have anything in common with whatsoever besides the fact that we all went to the same school--and we weren't even in the same class! I was 05, Katy was 06, and Gracey was 07. Oh, we all did play trumpet in the band so I guess that's something.

And also a part of this moral is that I'm actually a bit nervous to meet up with them again. It's going to be soooooooooooo awkward for me! I mean, the two of them still talk and randomly see each other--I haven't seen either for...years! It's going to be soooooooo aaawkwaaard, and I don't reeeeaally wanna do this. I mean, I sort've do because, ya know, they were a big part of my life back in the day and I care about them...I just don't really wanna hang out.

I was thinking about trying to get/bribe someone to go alone with me, and I'm sure that would help me a little...but bringing innocent civilians into this Make-Bree-Uncomfortable War doesn't sound like the right thing to do.

Oi, wish me luck!
