(no subject)

I feel like saying something witty, clever, or wise, but I seem to be drawing an utter blank.

I don't know why, but lately I've been having this one line from the movie My Stepmother is an Alien playing over and over in my head. It's the one from the the Jimmy Durante movie that the Dan Aykroyd's character loves. "Did you ever have the feelin' that you wanted to go, but still you had the feelin' that you wanted to stay?" I dunno, but it's just been popping into my head a lot of late. I guess it's rather fitting of my life at the moment. Not necessarily to do with literally leaving, but like I'm between two places, 'tween the old and the new. Also, where do you go to get some new friends when the old ones stop working?

I think I really am in the beginnings of a transition. We always are transitioning to something, but I think this has the markings of a major one. I think I need to really get a new group of friends to hang out with. My young life group is nice and all, and they'll always be my friends, but we honestly have nothing in common. I would say we have the love of Jesus, but very few of them really seem interested in him in their day to day lives. But regardless, I need some more, I don't know, intellectual friends. Friends who are interested in actually sitting down and discussing things, who are constantly devoting every waking moment to sports, or outdoorsy crap. Or the shallow things of life. I need friends who will actually understand and laugh at even half of my jokes. I know such people exist; I've met some. I just don't know any here. I swear, Colorado, and all the surrounding states, consist of like this huge gaping hole of thought and geekiness. I need fellow geeks here! Where are you, my geeklings?

I'd better stop here, before I slide completely into one long, extended whine...
