Some people just suck
In order of appearance:
- rant towards worthless bankers
- recounting new years eve
- i was kind of mean, but it was funny to me anyway
- most things in life are trivial, get over it and move onto the big stuff.
Its the new year and over all I am very positive about how everything will be going moving forward.
I like how the world has been flipped upside down. It gives us little people a level playing field.
All the investment douchebags are pretty unsure of their futures. I like that. It gives me strength to know that I control my destiny, not some bloated company or unsustainable industry.
Right so, some people just suck.
New Years night was an ode to the past.
My buddy Charles ran into an old high school girlfriend of mine. Without telling her he would be hanging out with me, we concocted a “suprise” New Years reunion.
Jump to 11:45 PM
Charles’ phone reads
Text 1:” I can get you in”
Text 2:”But NO Kristian Hansen”
I got in for free anyway.
It was so great to create an akward, forced situation. Instead of enjoying a reunion of old friends and catching up, I was treated with indifference and the eternal feeling that this chick (who I dated for 2 years) wanted me to die. She did an excellent job of not making eye contact, of running to whatever part of the bar I was not standing in.
Now I make it out as though I was stalking her, but that could be further from the truth. I mean shit, its been 8 years since high school graduation and I haven’t seen her since. Get over it already. So what, Junior Prom wasn’t everything you wanted it to be. You weren’t everything I wanted you to be either.
Before leaving I got my sweet soundbite.
Strolling towards the vindictive ex-high school lover of mine from 1999-2000, the thoughts of our first date, first kiss, the copious amounts of Nutella I showered her with all blurred into a “I really don’t like you, but I am going to be the bigger person here” moment.
Me: How is everything going?
Her: Fine.
Me: So what’s up?
Her: Its just that out of all the people in the world, you are the last one I expected to see tonight.
Me:Okay, well. Hope you have a good New Years. Great catching up! (me smirking with kindness)
And that was it. That is it.
Bittersweet.
New Years Day I heard that my grandmother was on her death bed. She is now no longer with us.
When I see how old friends treat each other it makes me shudder. How can people become so detached when there are many more important things occurring in our lives than dwelling on the past. You would think I killed someone’s cat.
Note: I have never killed a cat.
Happy New Years!
