How many times have you found yourself speaking of a same sex couple and saying “not that there is anything wrong with that” refering to the quote from the Seinfiend sitcom?
He also did a speil about how kids have friends the minute they walk out the front door and find other kids…..adults on the other hand……dont make friends so easily.
A friend ( a much respected NEW friend) of mine, transfered to Toronto from Edmonton a few months ago, with only high school chums, and work contacts as a starting point for starting a whole new social network. She joined the Running Room and the Curling club and got to know new people that (some who were only names on a distribution list at work). She met friends of friends (me). She found things to do and places to go and people to see. In a few months she has built herself a pretty cool life with an an amazing veiw over Lake Ontario.
I on the other hand am at the same job for going on +10 years, the my house (with equity I keep telling myself) has come to feel like an money pit, and the people that I meet when I step out the front door have been known to call the cops on me when I have left the radio on after 11:00pm. I long for those idelic days when I would show up at the sledding hill and whoever was there would be my best friend.
Not to say that I dont have some great friends. I do but there are days when new conversation would be a stimulating change. Maybe I need to move. LOL NEVER!!!!
