Dear Juliet, November and Lima,

Thank you for being my friend Juliet, I know the drama and issues have caused us to be closer, thank you for putting up with me as well as everything else going on. Lima, now that you are dating Juliet, you and I are also becoming better friends, it was fun hanging out this afternoon you’re one of the best, thanks for lending an ear as well. November, thanks for listening, taking my advice now, you’ve proven to me you do care about what I have to say. Like I said, go straight to the source of the problem, it’s much easier to get it worked out that way. Work on your issues, when you’re in a good mood you’re a real sweetheart, don’t forget that. Thank you for introducing me to Juliet, I’ve now become her “Weird friend”, that’s better than no friend. I may not always show it, but I am happy you all are in my life, please stick around. It means the would that you three care, and everyone else too.

Sincerely,

Your still sad but joyous friend

Dear Friend,

Forget the damn letters, forget all of it, I knew in my heart that I had no chance in hell, but you know I still had hope, it would be too much trouble, having our mutual friend that I dated and all, go, go be with our mutual Bass player friend that doesn’t even live in the same damn city. Congrats to the both of you, and good luck, remember if you need a friend I am here, but I am hurt. Like I told our Bass player friend, in the end none of this matters anyway, this is the last letter, this is it, forget it. Moving on!

Sincerely,

Bandadged Heart

Dear Juliet,

For now I will call you Juliet, only because it is the phonetic spelling for the letter “J”, after all I am no Romeo, but there is an “R” in my last name. I told you you’d like that movie, I was mad that they still did not show the Transformers trailer, I’m an 80′s kid sorry I am obsessed with it. You were right at dinner, I really should “Just say it”. You don’t know it yet, but that has inspired me, ’07 will be my greatest yet.

Dear Juliet,

For now I will call you Juliet, only because it is the phonetic spelling for the letter “J”, after all I am no Romeo, but there is an “R” in my last name. I told you you’d like that movie, I was mad that they still did not show the Transformers trailer, I’m an 80′s kid sorry I am obsessed with it. You were right at dinner, I really should “Just say it”. You don’t know it yet, but that has inspired me, ’07 will be my greatest yet.Sorry I missed dinner last night, I had to go to a retreat thing that I’m really not supposed to say much about. You should have seen the guys though when I walked into the room, I lit the place up, guys older than me looking up to me. I guess the faith is strong in this one, I know it is in you as well. We both have had some interesting experiences that have made us that way, sure my knee cap doesn’t compare to your coma, but still, you get the idea. There is much power in prayer.See you tonight at JPM, not much else to say at the moment. Previous plans are not working out like I thought. The thing I felt I couldn’t say was I am embarrassed at how I was acting that one night, and two nights ago at dinner as well. I know you probably won’t want a guy like me, but there’s always hope.I found you on MySpace, so what, you know who said not to add me, I think she’s jealous.

Sincerely,
Not Romeo

I know Andy probably already knows, that's the ITU standard phonetic spelling of my first name. Here's a few friends and family names phoneticly spelled:Echo Romeo India Charlie (my brother)Alpha Nove…

I'll explain why my profile used to say I AM that guy on MySpace. You see, when Andy came home from the Army, a bunch of his friends met up at Bdubs and I was sitting alone at a big round table, some …

Dear Ex’s Friend,

As you already know, by me admitting, and others noticing, yes, in your words I am “Crushing” on you. You probably told our mutual friend too, I expect that, you two are best friends, which is really acting against me. Sorry for the way I acted, an old habit that sometimes worked, and sometimes didn’t. That’s going to change though. You see, recently I’ve been given advice, and recieved several albeit small boosts to my self-confidence. What happened the other night won’t happen again, if I can make a concerted effort that is. So you’ve seen me a bit emotional, I’ve been told not to do that, but, it did get me your phone number, did it not? Of course it was because you offered to let me talk about my problems, I’ve decided not to do that, not yet, but you can go ahead, talk about yourself, I am listening, I won’t be asking anymore questions, but I will be remembering almost everything you say, yeah, I am auditory. That’s why I like music, that’s why it fascinates me that you can play six instruments and are even in your own band. Funny, you just happen to play at my favorite bar that I don’t regularly get to visit.

Happy New Year, I just got home, my mom and my uncle were watching Carlos Mencia. I think he’s funny in a truthful, make fun of everyone sort of way. I went to a party at a friend’s house, I rode with the most recent ex girlfriend and her friend. See her friend even though I just met, I sort of have an interest in, but there’s no rushing this time. What’s odd though is the ex is getting jealous, especially when she found out about said interest, so she told me “She already likes someone else” I don’t believe that. Not when the person in question asked ME who she should hook up with, I didn’t say, but I did sort of drop a hint that caused the ex to say ME. I’m no dummy. I did get the opportunity to explain to the friend why I was no longer dating the ex, by way of experience, she had to experience the same thing, the whole “will you talk to so-and-so for me” thing is getting old for her too, so I used that situation to my advantage, I said “Hey, if you need any help dealing with her” and gave her my #. I also said “We’re her best friends we need to stick together”.  We got to talk more, we’ve done a lot of talking, and I’ve done a lot of listening, keeping mental record of certain things, I’ve noticed it surprises her to know that I’ve been paying attention.  Just wait til I stop by House of Jam when her band Mimic is playing, yeah, as a supportive friend, won’t she be surprised.

The beer and the apple thing. We were playing Apples to Apples, and just as I was very close to winning, one green apple card away (but I didn’t know that yet)  I got sick in front of everyone. That was only after two beers, but there was a lot of food and something else involved, I won’t say what, but it was not an illegal drug or cigarettes.
