weBLOG for February 17th, 2004

Yesterday's quote was from a very funny movie called "Stripes" with Bill Murray and Harold Ramis. That line is when at an Army recruiting station, they're asked if they are homosexuals. Several quotes could have come from that movie.

Today, to borrow a line from Ice Cube, "I gotta say it was a good day." Went out with some old friends, made some new friends, drank some alcohol, etc. I'm rather secure now with my state of being single. I think things can start getting better.

And continuing on with this last vein, I want to mention something that will make my life, and the life of my friends, better. Years ago, two friends of mine decided to not follow their feelings towards this girl I knew because they knew I had a thing for her, even though she had things for them and not for me. I didn't find this out until years later, and I chided these chuckleheads for committing such stupidity. I'm glad they had my happiness in mind, but it was a piece of stupidity on their part.

Now, this is in danger of happening again. A friend of mine is interested in this girl I know, and my friend is sceptical because of my feelings for this girl. As is said in a famous quote, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained." While I would appreciate this friend taking my feelings into consideration, my friend should take the opportunity presented. I know I would.

I wouldn't take the opportunity away from any of my friends to be happy. While I do appreciate my friends doing things for me, this shouldn't be one of them. Lord willingly, everything works out the way they want it to.
