today i slathered on the spf 50 and laid in the sun where i finished off another one of the trashy suspense novels i can't seem to get away from these days. the cats were out in fine fashion as well. prowling the hillside, eating grass and sunning their fat bellies. i am increasingly paranoid about bug being outside after last summer and his sunburned nose and ears. cats can get skin cancer just like people do. i learn something new every day, or at the very least every week. the only difference between us and cats in this regard is that cats can't wear sunscreen and as much as i think he would look cute in one, i am sure bug would very much object to a sunhat.
days off are so boring around here. nanaimo is brimming with a lot more activities and places to go and things to see then crofton ever did. but what fun is that when you don't really have any friends to do things with? dan told me i need to go and make some friends. how do you even do that when you are a grown adult? do i go to a library in search of female companionship and when i find one ask her if i can braid her hair? i don't know how to attempt to make a friend without coming across as a complete mental case.
i guess all i can do is just let things happen. and maybe if the sun decides to actually stick around long enough i might be inclined to let him and i become fast friends. so long as he's not a fair weather one. we'll see how this all plays out...i'm hoping for a warm and long summer surrounded by my favourite people.
here's to wishing...:)

I recommend getting involved in a roller derby league. You'll have tons of instant friends!
Welcome back to blogging!
I hear you on the friends front.
I think the best place is work maybe? Other than that it is definitely tricky. It's not like elementary school where you can just ask to be someones best friend and thats a sealed deal.
I guess you could always put out an ad? Haha.
It's harder to make friends as an adult, espically if you are more proned to be introverted. May I suggest finding a hobby class or attending an small event where small chat and socialization is encouraged.
When I moved to Ottawa, it was hard to make friends as I was no longer in school and working full time at a hospital. Once I started going out to social events and taking class, I started to make friends.
i would like to be friends with you. i don't have a blogging account or anything but i wander around the internet a lot.
i don't know if you live anywhere close to me though. looks northernish.
