make more friends

Alright, I figured out why I can’t easily make friends in Miami, but I have managed to make a few good ones. So I’m calling this done, and looking forward to moving.

I’ve gone and made a friend at work. The unbelievable part is that he’s a straight male. Crazy, that.

Cool guy. I would NEVER have guessed that we’d get along so well, though. I mean, the first place I ever saw him was in the parking garage. He has a personalized license plate that is a clear tribute to the band Motley Crue. My last Motley Crue reference was when I saw that they were playing the Van Wert, OH county fair. I laughed for a good WEEK about that one. So me talking to this guy without openly laughing at him? Never gonna happen.

But then he needed a report that I generate. So he came by. And we got to talking. And he’s cool as penguin toes. We have had lunch together a few times, and plan to hang out some evening in the near future. Neat.

Oh, also, he’s Half-Mexican! In Miami! COOL!

I meet a lot of people. I just don’t get very close with, well, hardly anyone. Why is that? Most people end up annoying me after a while, and I don’t think it’s because most people are annoying.

No, I’m pretty sure the problem is me.
