"Nobody knows you when you're down and out," the song goes. And by suspending as much melodrama as I can I'll attest to that. I've been there and am doing that.
But when I'm having a bad day, like I did today, people who I haven't spoken to in a while have a way of just calling me.
I had a really big argument over the phone, and I lost badly. And as I sat fuming in my chair trying to find ways to simply distract myself I get a call out of the blue from two guys I used to work with who I hadn't seen in 8-9 months. It did the trick. And after that call I called the person I was arguing with back and apologized. They apologized, too.
Then I got a call from a friend asking if I wanted to hang out and just watch TV. Yeah, that would do nicely.
I sleep tonight immensely grateful that I have friends like these.
