More random imaginings.

So for some reason, today I got the bright idea to go through all of my messaging programs and do another 'clean sweep' of people that I no longer speak with. My contact lists were pared down quite a bit - I got rid of an average 40+ people on each one. That's right - forty people.

In some ways I'm sad about it. These people were ones that I often spoke with, people whom I still wonder about... but in all honesty, it's therapeutic that I get rid of them - I can't go back to the past... even though I still try, Gawd knows. But I think I'm making progress.

One of these days I'm going to remember that there's a future out there for me... but when will I believe it, is the question..

There's not much going on today - it's Sunday. No work, no grind. I hope this upcoming week will be a lot better than last, as I nearly didn't make it through. I do have a long weekend approaching (this upcoming one), so I'll have time to relax and rest. But that's also the weekend my classes start, too, so I'm nervous. Plus, I have to start getting ready to move, too.

Sigh. It's going to be a busy month.

Anyway, not much point to this rambling, so I'll end here...

One point of note: I quit smoking for good 4 years ago today, 5/17/2005. Who knew I'd last this long. I'm proud of myself. :)

Nah, we're talking about people from the channels we used to go to, people I haven't seen in... well, years. That's the one thing about IRC that I never liked... people who were supposedly "your best friends" disappear over the weeks/months.. and then years later, you're clearing them off your messenger lists, heh.

I'm really glad I don't go there anymore. I gave in to curiosity a couple of weeks ago and looked in on the old network.. C, you wouldn't recognize it anymore. It's truly, truly a sad place now. I shut mIRC, deleted it and haven't looked back since.

Best thing I ever did.
